Story by Coach
Chambers
Four Lady Hornets Medal at Benton
Tennis Tourney
On a blazing hot Friday, the CHS girls' varsity tennis team competed
in the Benton Tournament for over six hours. The morning started in
all singles play based on ranked brackets for all nine teams. After
those matches played out, the afternoon was spent in similarly
ranked brackets with doubles pairs. After playing six or seven pro-6
matches each, four lady hornets went home with individual medals,
and every player ended the day with a winning record. Junior Anya
Moore and senior Rian Mathews actually snagged two medals each for
both singles and doubles in their respective ranks. Coach Chambers
was most excited that the team as a whole finished fourth out of
nine schools since these were almost all schools in their district
or conference. The lady hornets only fell to St. Pius, Maryville,
and Savannah.
Coach said, "This was a great first glimpse of where we stand
in the MEC and postseason picture. We know what to expect from here
on out, and we have a real shot to fight for our end of season
goals."
