Nation Ford came ready to play today. Their varsity lineup, from top to bottom, had us running from the get go. While we could hang our heads and be disappointed with the lopsided loss, I'd rather us take it as a lesson on what hard work can do.
Last year, we handled Nation Ford easily both times we played. According to their coach and some parents I talked to after the match, their team is a close knit group of kids. Most of them traveled to tennis camp together this summer and remained close last summer and over the fall. Their team chemistry was undeniable.
Aside from the 0-7 loss, we had some highlights on the reserve courts. We won nearly all of those matches which shows that our team is deep. Congrats to Duncan Foy, Michael Baldwin, Alex Antezana, Jonathan Patton, and Ahmad Sheffield on singles wins. Collins Mauldin & Key Brakley also teamed up for a doubles win.
We have South Pointe tomorrow at home. Let's get motivated to get a win against our cross town rival.
Go Trojans!
