Wow! I jumped the gun on thinking the weather would be much better early in our 2015 season compared to last year. 🙁 Since my last post, the sun has totally disappeared.
We did get in our match with tough Hallsville, and got beat pretty badly. Next, the Gladewater Bear Tourney was cancelled due to wet courts and cold temps.
Luckily, we did get to travel to Brock and play our TTCA Regional 3A TEAM Tournament. WO competed against four different schools during the two day tourney, and most team members played a total of 8 matches. On Friday we defeated our first opponent, Glen Rose, 15-4, and lost to tournament champs, Brock, 12-0. In Saturday’s first match, WO dominated Millsap, 17-2, and then allowed Whitesboro to take second place and qualify for state by losing to them 10-5. My younger players gained some valuable experience by being able to participate in their first TEAM tennis tournament.
Since then, February 21, the weather has not been very conducive to tennis practice or playing. Ice, snow, rain, slippery roads and below freezing temperatures have kept us off the courts and from participating in the NAC Tourney.
And…the rainy, cloudy skies are still with us!!! I need sun!!!
