On Wednesday April 9th, our whole tennis squad participated in the tennis team as we competed against both Maplebrook and Rumsey on the same day. We lost both matches but everyone played and everyone enjoyed the opportunity to to play in the school team.
In the Rumsey game we lost narrowly by 5 games to 4. Kayleigh and Griffin, playing at #1 and #3 respectfully,both lost and were clearly struggling to produce the type of tennis we know them capable of while Shriman, at #2, narrowly won his match in a 6-5 marathon affair. Comfortable wins by Sean at #5 and Adrienne at #4 followed.Possibly the unluckiest player of all was Sasha at #6 who narrowly lost his game 7-5 after a stunning early comeback. Our doubles players competed well but we were overcome by 2 matches to 1 by strong Rumsey opposition. Adam and Caleb were searching for unity losing 6-0, while Cooper and Austin lost narrowly by 6-4.Danielle and Zach completed their game on a high winning the last game of the day to beat their opponents 6-5.
The Maplebrook game on the face of it was a one sided affair with Maplebrook winning all games save one by fairly high scores. However, as Ms. Bettigole reported, our players thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and did not give up a single point easily.
The team consisted of Paige, Maddy, Chalotte, Alexa, Christie, Caitlin, Abby, Heather, Chelsea, Bernadette and Erica. Well done girls!!
