The club’s Goulburn Murray Lawn Tennis Association outfits suffered narrow defeats.
The Cobram Crocs went down in a nail-biter in division two mixed action against Numurkah Raiders.
The Crocs settled for a 6-57 to 5-55 defeat at their home deck.
The visitors began in red-hot fashion and won the two opening rubbers, however, the Crocs bounced back in the remaining two singles rubbers.
Jodie Wastell and Kate Bird were superb for Cobram, winning their singles matches to love and prevailing in the doubles to keep their side in the contest.
Locked in: Cobram Cobras’ Erin McKinnar.
