Story by Coach
Sophie Chambers
On Monday night, the lady
hornets' tennis team fell to 5-9 in team duals this season after
losing to the Marshall lady owls on their senior night. With
Chillicothe's #3 & #4 out for the night, most of the Chilli squad
played above their rank. The night started out strong with two wins
in doubles' play. Number two doubles' pair Jasmine McLean and Summer
Gatson killed it at the net throughout their entire match with the
opposing coach even commenting on their net strength. The same was
true on the number three doubles' court with Lydia Bonderer and Lexy
Smith making their varsity dual debut as a pair. They handedly beat
veteran players in that match thanks to their extreme hustle and
constant communication. However, the singles' matches went almost
entirely Marshall's way with five wins due to their brilliant
baseline play, never letting a ball get past them. Coach Chambers
said that her singles' athletes played great matches, but Marshall
was simply relentless in their deep court coverage. She was
especially proud of a great win from junior Rian Mathews in a tough
#6 singles match.
Results were as follows:
#1 Doubles -- Micah Crowe & Keonnia Morgan lost to Avery Evans
&Megan Miles 8-6
#2 Doubles -- Jasmine McLean & Summer Gatson beat Kaylen & Megan
