Girls tennis preparing for districts
Last season the girls tennis program ended with a devastating 2-9 regular season, having been eliminated in the first round for both singles and doubles. This year the ladies are looking to bounce back with new people for both singles and doubles going to districts.
“”This season we did well in terms of competing,””coach Hassan Mims said. “”We didn’t give up and tried as hard as we could and I’m very proud of them for their efforts on the court.””
“ Representing Annandale High School for singles at the number one position will be Sarah Metzel, at the number two position it will be Soriya De Lopez and they will team up for doubles one and for number two doubles it will be sophmores Luka Fernandez and Lucie Lefbom.
With singles number one and two being seniors, this is their last season to make memories so the girls will be striving for greatness this year. “
“Last year we lost in the first round for both singles and doubles, however two out of our four matches were extremely close,””Mims said.
Mims has encouraged his girls all season. Mims has been coaching for the past four years but has been unsuccessful. His team is striving for greatness after years of rebuilding the tennis program and looks to be successful in the district tournament.
The Atoms look forward to playing home on May 14 and May 15
