Prep tennis Grytness, Murphy rescue North GRANTS PASS -- With six varsity players out of the lineup for a variety of reasons, North Medford's undefeated dual record in girls tennis looked in jeopardy Saturday. But a pair of sophomore singles players -- Tabitha Grytness and Rebekah Murphy -- came to the rescue as North won its eighth straight Southern Oregon Conference match with a 6-3 victory over Grants Pass. Grytness prevailed in a difficult three-setter over Jeanette Perry in No. 3 singles, while Murphy followed in the No. 4 spot with a decisive win against Ellie Cook. North faced the Cavers without No. 1 singles player Jenny Brown and its top doubles team of Ali Mostue and Christie Brawner. SINGLES -- Christina Pierce, GP, d.
