Marshall Shuts Down Lady Hornets Tennis
8/27/2015 Marshall 9, at Chillicothe 0
 

     The Chillicothe Lady Hornets Tennis team ran into a buzz saw by the name of the Marshall Lady Owls, falling to the perennial powerhouse 9 to 0 at the Danner Park Courts.
     Lady Hornets coach Amanda Marsh called it a learning experience for her team.
     "I have recently read a quote on pinterest saying that you don't lose in tennis, but you do research. We definitely researched the game of tennis Thursday. Marshall beat us last year and returned 5 of their 6 varsity players this year. That makes them a very hard team to beat. We learned a lot through out the match. It gave our younger players a chance to see how an opponent may figure out your weakness and then capitalize on it the whole match. It also showed the girls how strategy and placement of the ball is so important. We learned a lot and were humbled. Coming off of a 9-0 victory from Cameron to losing 0-9 to Marshall brought out heads back down out of the clouds and we are going to work hard in practice on Friday to prepare for Trenton. The Marshall match was good to show us that we can't let up, we have to work hard at all times and continue to improve. I am not disappointed in the outcome because we lost to a better team. My girls gave a great effort and that's the most important thing to me.
