STATE TEAM TOURNAMENT<\/p>\n
St. Paul Johnson beat St. Paul Washington 5-2 to win their tenth overall team title and got revenge in the process. The Governors fell to the Eagles 4-3 in the last regular season match on May 3 which snapped a 45 match conference winning streak. Today the Governors flipped second singles and first doubles to get their fifth straight title (and nine of the last ten). Johnson opened the day with a 6-1 victory over Edina, the only non-St. Paul school in the quarterfinals. In the semis Johnson shut out #5 Central 7-0. The Minutemen pushed Johnson to three sets in third singles and first doubles. For the day Johnson had two singles and two doubles teams that won every match. Of those four undefeated flights second singles Pa Di Moua, the St. Paul City champ and the number one seed in the individual portion of the state tournament which begins on Wednesday, and the third doubles pair of Pacee & Joy did not lose a set.<\/p>\n
