Order on the Court
The Girls Tennis Team Visualizes Victory at the Start of the Season
September 17, 2018
The girls tennis team has won all three of their matches this week, stepping off the court with an eight to one win against Benton on September 12th. Junior, Mackenzie Grist and senior, Bryndle Burks both state that they want more than anything to win the sectional title back for their team, “It is in the back of our minds constantly… especially us seniors, seeing as it is our last chance to work for it again,” Burks states.
By looking at the girls play their hearts out on the court, it is easy to see that the upperclassmen, seniors especially, have set an amazing example for their new coming members. Setting a good example in the game is one thing, but that example carries over “not just in game skills, but also in sportsmanship” and with being around the same teammates since the middle of summer comes recognizing their change for the better.
No team is perfect all of the time and the girls have had some finishing scores that they are not proud of, but with the progress they have made already paired with their longing for success promises nothing short of a satisfying season and hopefully a sectional title.
