Story By Coach Amanda
Marsh
We had some of our freshman players step up to win
big matches for us tonight. Lafayette was only able to bring 5 of
their players, so we automatically won at #6 singles and #3 doubles.
I decided to rest Mae VanFossen in singles and let her play doubles
because her back hurts her so bad and we want her to be well rested
for Friday's all day tournament in St. Joe. This moved all players
except Gracy up.
Hunter Keithley and Macy Cavanah won singles easily
and gained some much needed confidence through their matches. They
are completely different players and each brings something we need
to our varsity tennis team. Macy has consistent strokes and has
played all summer to prepare. Hunter is a very powerful net player
and server. She is also a great competitor. I think both were hungry
for a win and finally got it tonight. I'm proud of them!
Danielle
Rapp also had an amazing match. She works and competes so hard. She
didn't get the outcome she was looking for, but that determination
will take her far this season. She is an amazing teammate and leader
and the younger girls really look up to her.
We needed this win and
I'm thankful it came before Friday's tournament. |
