Bears Rebound With Win Against Grandview
The Lady Bears’ tennis team rebounded from a tough loss to Oak Park on Tuesday with a big 8-1 win against Grandview on Wednesday.
In singles play Ally Cook, Katie Schaefer, Nicole Eppert, Juliette Anderson, and Atlanta Petty won. Chrisman also swept all three doubles teams of Cook and Schaefer, Isabelle Jaynes and Kiara Ashurst, and Eppert and Hannah Kimbrough.
"I really let my varsity squad have it after the match vs. Oak Park,” Grubb said. “Our JV squad has only lost 2 duals and both were close losses. I challenged them with meeting the confidence of the younger/less experienced players on the team who are having unprecented success on JV.”
Katie Schaefer, in particular, was impressive in her 8-0 singles #2 win and her doubles victory with #1 Ally Cook," said Coach Grubb.
Throughout this past week or two of injuries and nearly daily competitions, the Bears have endured lots of long matches.
"Our girls have done a nice job playing with Celeste during her injury and having Kiara limited to doubles only and picking up the slack. I hope it continues until we can get back to full strength," said Grubb.
