Chrisman Tennis Wins Opener
The William Chrisman girls’ tennis team opened its season with a 9-0 win against Ruskin on Tuesday, August 23.
The rain couldn’t dampen the Lady Bears’ chances in the first match of the season as they outlasted a rain delay to come out with the victory.
“[We were] able to outlast a summer's worth of practice and the anticipation of competition since August 1st, so a little rain was not a problem either,” coach Jason Grubb said.
Coach Grubb said he was very pleased with the team's play overall considering that only 4 of the players in matches had ever played a high school match before. After losing 5 varsity players from last year's team, the young Bear cubs would show “lots of nerves in the first dual of the season.”
“These girls are very excited for both the near and distance future,” Grubb said.
