Zack Frank took the first set at No. 1 singles in a tiebreaker for Adams Central Monday, but the Bluffton Tigers won every other varsity set on the night on their way to a 5-0 victory in ACAC play.
Frank pushed Reid Abbett all the way to the tiebreak and emerged with a 7-4 win in the opening set, but Abbett was better the rest of the way to score the victory.
