States?

Obviously I'm not going to be playing in the state championships but I hope to go and watch. The coach hasn't told us where its exact location yet, as far as I know. We were supposed to have exhibition matches with the boys team and a pizza party yesterday afternoon but it got rained out. I just heard that it will be rescheduled for Monday.

Tennis is done (?)

I know that the girls' team is going to states but since I'm nowhere near being a 'top player' I am confused on the schedule on whether the whole team is still practicing or playing make-up games or what because the season is supposed to be officially over. I'm going to send Coach Hastings an e-mail about it. I actually went to a game the other day that I wasn't supposed to play in. I couldn't get my mom on her cell phone so I had to stay there the whole time. I did practice a little though, which was good.

Tennis May 13, 2009

Today is our last day of practice. I'm going to miss tennis, it feels like it's gone by so quickly but my schedule for the rest of the week is games against Pope John Paul, Cape Tech, and Mashpee. I hope I can at least play in the Pope John Paul game to wrap up the season.

Tennis May 12, 2009

Today we had practice until 6. I feel like I've been getting better and I want to take advantage of this last week of playing. On Friday we had a game against Pope John Paul, which I got to play in. Unfortunately, my side lost the set but it felt good to participate. I wasn't doing well with serving until the second time I started during the match. For some reason, I just started hitting the ball into the right places in the right way. Something just clicked. So part of my goal, to have participated in a real game has been accomplished and I'll carry that into next year, where (hopefully) I'll move on from exhibition.
