Aitkin won 13 of 14 sets (plus one tiebreaker) against the Eagles last Thursday in a 7-0 win.
Lauri Vorderbruggen and Erica Imsande, New York Mills No. 1 doubles team, lost their first set 6-0, but bounced back for a 7-5 win in the second to force a tiebreaker, which the Aitkin team won, 7-1.
"Other than the first doubles team, we did not fair well in this one," Bach said.
The Eagles scored just nine total points outside the No. 1 doubles match.
NY Mills (2-6) finally returns to their home court today (Sept. 7) for the first time this fall to take on Osakis at 4:30 p.m. The Silverstreaks beat Mills, 7-0, during a season-opening quadrangle.
The Eagles will scrimmage at Staples-Motley on Sept. 11, then return home for matches against Parkers Prairie on Sept. 12 and against Mahnomen on Sept. 14.
