The Ramblers took down Northwest Whitfield in the boys' match, while the the Lady Ramblers found tougher sledding against large school powerhouse Carrollton, before an abbreviated set of matches against Northwest. kAm%96 3@JDV >2E49 D2H E96 #2>3=6CD ;F>A @FE E@ 2? `g\`a =625 27E6C E96 7:CDE 7:G6 3@FED] qC2?E=6J $>:E9 W`h_ A@F?5DX 3682?
