“Today’s dual came down to winning the close matches. We ended up winning 3 of the 5 matches that finished 8-5 or 8-6. This dual was good for us to help us continue to gain confidence in the end of match play and the ability to finish a match. Our big wins at 1,2, and 5 singles, as well as 3 doubles helped pave the way. It allowed us to only need to win one of the close matches to take the dual. Hannah Wulf did a great job in singles with her placement. She was able to put her opponent into tough spots and forced her to hit defensive shots. Emma and Emilee both had dominant days in singles and doubles. They both understand when to hit hard and when to play more conservatively and place the ball.” – KHS Head Coach Troy Saulsbury
