For some people tennis is just a game, but for these dedicated ladies, it’s a sport. The girls’ tennis team has been practicing extra hard this year in order to defeat their rivals.
In girls’ tennis, JHS can only afford to take a small bus to the away matches so that only leaves room for six players to go. Those players are Annie Deal, Lucy Deal, Ashley Mason, Allie Berhends, Hannah Scobbie, Taylor Walter, and Molly McGiles.
The season started off with an away match against Lincoln, on Wednesday, August 22. Lincoln won the match five to four. Even though our girls lost, that just motivates the girls to practice harder.
The girls had another away meet facing Rochester on September 4th. They won five to four.
Coach Brooks said, “Girls are working hard and showing great improvement. Should be a fun season.”
The girls’ season will last until about the end of October. With plenty of matches in their future, we can expect to see more wins than losses.
