“The past two days have been really good for us and our growth, even though our success hasn’t been where we want it. McCook has a strong team. Overall, I like how well we have competed the past two days. However, we need to learn how to finish. We need to do a better job of finishing points, finishing games, and finishing matches. Every match we lost against McCook was close. McCook was just a little bit stronger than us late in the match. I am pleased with our progress and the improvement we continue to make. Emma Heacock continues to have a strong sophomore campaign. Emma was dominant in all four of her matches only giving up 3 total games. Emma does an excellent job of mixing up her shots. She is very strategic when to hit with pace or to change the spin of the ball.” – KHS Girls Tennis Head Coach Troy Saulsbury
