After two cancelations because of extreme heat on Monday and Tuesday, the Siloam Springs tennis teams returned to action Wednesday against Rogers Heritage.
The Panthers and Lady Panthers were both defeated 3-1.
The only victories came from No. 1 boys singles and No. 2 girls singles. Lucas Junkermann picked up a 8-1 victory over Heritage's Carlos Solis.
Julia Tran defeated Heritage's Morgan Phillips 8-1.
"We lost a couple of very close matches that could have gone either way and were close to coming away with the win," said head coach Clay Taylor. "We are a young team that continues to improve."
The Panthers and Lady Panthers are scheduled to host Russellville at 4 p.m. Tuesday in a 5A-West Conference match at the John Brown University tennis courts.
