It was our final match of the year to a very memorable season. We played against East Grand Rapids for the second time, but this time it was at Gainey. The first meeting was a hard-fought win. This GRC JV Team was riding on an undefeated season and we used home court to our advantage. We had a lot of even matches and spectacular points. In the end we won, match score was 10-2, and overall score was 16-2. This was the first year that we doubled up all our matches. We played most schools twice, and had two quads. In all head-to-head matches we were a perfect 22-0. Our girls displayed character, mental fortitude, and a will to win every time they stepped on court. They all worked hard, had fun, great team chemistry, and bond. We will miss our Senior girls Ava Baker, Addison Scott, Emmarie Van Oss, Natalie Molenbeek, and Maria Martinez Morell. Most of them have been an instrumental part of this current program that started 3 years ago. Thank you, girls and good luck, on your fut
