(5-2) did not play Tuesday due to a power outage. In the SCVAL De Anza Division, Palo Alto tightened its grip on first place with a 25-21, 25-13, 26-24 victory over visiting Los Altos. The Vikings stretched their winning streak to 21 matches while improving to 23-3 overall (7-0 in league) despite playing “a match fraught with errors,� said Paly coach Dave Winn. “But, in this league, any win is a good win.� Next up for Palo Alto will be rival Gunn on Tuesday in the Titans’ gym at 6:45 p.m. Gunn (0-6, 12-15), which played Los Altos on Thursday night while searching for its first division victory, dropped a 25-20, 25-15, 14-25, 25-17 decision to visiting Los Gatos on Monday night despite 11 kills and seven digs from Teresa Skelly and 14 assists and seven digs from fellow senior Shelly Kousnetz. Girls tennis Tuesday’s rainstorm washed out an entire slate of matches, but a sunny (albeit overcast) Wednesday
allowed Menlo and Sacred Heart Prep to meet in a match moved back from Thursday. The visiting Gators (2-3, 8-6) actually held the lead in four matches before falling to the Knights (5-0, 7-5), who won their 163rd straight league match dating to the start of the 1994 season. Sacred Heart was the only team in the West Bay Athletic League (Foothill Division) expected to challenge Menlo this season. The Knights’ path to a 16th straight league title now seems assured. Menlo topped SHP in the first meeting, 7-0, but the Gators didn’t have freshman Alyssa Kohrs in the lineup then. She beat Menlo senior Anjali Ranadive, 6-2, 6-3 at No. 3 singles and the win impressed even Menlo coach Bill Shine. Menlo swept the doubles after splitting the singles, “We’re happy with the outcome,â€? said Shine, who has his team in Newport Beach this weekend for the annual National Invitational tournament.â–
