We made the long venture over to Lancaster down Hwy 5 to compete against another top team in the state. While coming up short against a solid Lancaster team that was recently voted #7 in the 4A girls poll (http://www.sctenniscoaches2.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1 ). I feel the match prepped us for our region match tomorrow at home against Fort Mill. As a team we sit at 5-6 overall and still at 2-3 in our region.
We had strong showings by Maggie Orr at 2 singles and Joanna Kohn at 4 singles. Both scores don't reflect how close these matches played out. I was happy to see Maggie fight through some long rallies at 2 to earn some hard fought points and games. Similar with Joanna as she played some very smart points displaying some great patience in setting up points at line 4.
Tomorrow we are back on the region tilt against Fort Mill. A win would put us in a tie for 3rd place with Fort Mill. We tested Brittany out tonight in a practice match and we should have our original lineup in place tomorrow to go through our second round of region matches.
Go Trojans!
