FAIRMONT — Back-to-back shutouts within a 24-hour time frame.

The Fairmont Cardinals tennis lineup needed a little more than an hour to post its second 7-0 triumph in consecutive days, zipping the River Valley Wildcats on Tuesday in Fairmont.

With senior doubles player Bergen Senf out due to illness, head coach Eric Johnson shuffled his varsity lineup a bit and still produced six straight-set victories on the Cardinal Courts.

Fairmont blanked Pipestone in a Big South Conference dual meet, 7-0, on Monday.

“Consistency. As a team, we’re playing the same way no matter who our opponent is on any given day,” said Johnson. “Our girls are more disciplined and focused, and don’t lose their concentration when they lose a point or hit a poor shot. They bounce right back.”

Maggy Totzke, Claire Nemmers and Ellie Hernes connected for high percentages of winners in reeling off three straight team tallies from the singles bracket.

Maggy Totzke’s serving proved as hot as the 90-degree temperature, delivering numerous aces to pace back-to-back 6-0 set victories over Jasmyne Windschitl at the No. 3 position in the bracket.

Hernes, who made a smooth transition from doubles on Monday to the No. 4 singles spot on Tuesday, and Nemmers tripled the Cardinals’ lead to 3-0 on the team ledger within seconds of one another.

Nemmers’ powerful groundstrokes closed out her back-to-back love set wins over Brooklyn Moldan at No. 1 singles, while Hernes’ point-producing serve-and-volley strategy sealed her 6-0, 6-0 decision over Lexanna Lazatin at the No. 4 position.

“With Bergen out, we tried some different combinations and each one of them worked out well for us,” said Johnson.

Lauren Davis and Emily Hagen proved Johnson’s post-match analysis by needing only a baker’s dozen games to pocket Fairmont’s official fourth team point at second doubles.

Davis and Hagen coasted to a 6-1, 6-0 victory over River Valley opponents Kathrine Schroepfer and Presley Dockter.

Second singles netter Briana Joseph matched Davis and Hagen by serving a 6-1, 6-0 loss to Kaydince Thoms to produce the Cardinals’ fifth team tally. Joseph displayed her patience and power to steadily pull away on the scorecards.

Libby Totzke and Anika Haugen combined court skills to roll to a 6-1, 6-3 third doubles win over the Wildcats’ Erika Lazano and Syde Wahl, while the Green sisters — Lauren and Shannon — captured a supertiebreaker that served as the decisive third set at No. 1 doubles for the Cardinals. Lauren Green and Shannon Green split the first two sets with Deniz Demirturk and Megan Stevens, 4-6 and 6-1, respectively, before coasting to a 10-4 victory in the tiebreaker.

Fairmont (11-7) plays host to St. Peter at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, while River Valley plays host to Waseca in Sleepy Eye.
