The Eagles competed hard for an excellent 2-1 result in the West Ottowa Invitational yesterday. The sun was shining, but players did battle with a strong wind coming from the SE which regularly gusted at 25 mph! GRC won against Holland Christian 6-3, beat Holland 7-2, and fell against a tough West Ottowa team 0-9. Highlights from the tournament include GRC's match against Holland Christian. The doubles lineup swept and three matches were decided by tiebreakers! Lauren Peal & Elizabeth Rupp won at 1st doubles 7-6 (7-4), 6-3, Alex Vermulen & Chloe Westhouse won 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) at 2nd doubles, Ashley Wolfe & Marissa Sullivan won at 3rd doubles 6-3, 7-5, Olivia Tuit & Hannah Baker won at 4th doubles 7-5, 2-6,10-4 and Emerson Williams & Lydia Pink won at 5th doubles 6-4, 6-1. The singles matches against Holland Christian were intensely contested, Ryann Breslin won at 1st singles 6-4, 6-4. Ainsley Weeber, Natalie Poortenga, and Calista Bremmer at 2nd, 3rd, and 4th singles displayed great tenacity on the court, took numerous games off their opponents, and are looking forward to a rematch later on in the season. The Invitational was a great opportunity for GRC to play high-quality opponents and collect match experience early-on in their season. The Eagles are looking forward to squaring off against South Christian at Home after Spring Break on Thursday 4/15.
