Hey West Ottawa Tennis Fans, Eisenhower was our only loss of the weekend...however...was it actually our best win? Maybe. What I know is that a year ago Eisenhower was the Division 1 State Runner-Up. And I know that they are just as talented as they were a year ago. And I know that we came one match away from beating them. However you want to view it, I'm assessing it as the best indication so far this year of how are girls are capable of playing when they really bring it. Our girls went toe to toe with an absolutely elite squad. Here are the results: Flight West Ottawa Eisenhower Score Winner 1s PRICE, Evie Gabby Sadowski 6-0 6-1 Eisenhower 2s GITLER, Izzy Morgan Emerick 6-4 6-1 Eisenhower 3s SHAFER, Sydney Mia MIller 6-3 6-2 West Ottawa 4s ROTHSTEIN, Maggie Sofia Gardner 7-6 6-1 Eisenhower 1d GAUL, Kallyn / KIM, Lovelle Alexis Gabriel / Kara Lu 6-0 6-0 Eisenhower 2d HUGHES, Hope / GEERLINGS, Haylee Maria Khami / Alexis Turnquist 6-1 6-4 West Ottawa 3d ANDERSON, Audrey / SMITH, Olivia Olivia Martinovski / Addison Dupuis 3-6 6-2 6-1 West Ottawa 4d PAFF, Mallory / SIKORSKI, Hope Anna Dukaj / Alaina Wood 7-5 7-5 Eisenhower 5d HARTMAN, Paislee / SLAGER, Eden Katarina Djordjevic / Not LIsted 6-2 6-2 West Ottawa Some losses in life are actually wins in disguise, and that's what we had here. Congratulations ladies on a hard fought battle! We will keep working and improving, and we'll look to push them even harder next time. -Coach Pete
