“Overall we continue to improve with each meet. Again today we were able to play to our seed or finish higher than what we were projected. Emilee Anderson had an outstanding day at #2 Singles. Emilee really played well in the windy conditions today. She used her strong groundstrokes to her advantage, as well as mixing up her shots to create errors from her opponents. Emilee’s only loss came to the #2 seed by an 8-5 score. Malory and Cecilia also had a terrific day. Malory and Cecilia did an awesome job of playing aggressive. They did a nice job of playing on the front foot. They stepped in on shots taking them early, as well as putting shots away at the net.” – KHS Girls Tennis Coach Troy Saulsbury
