Osky Girls Tennis Starts Season Against Grinnell

by Bryan Kime

Monday the girls Tennis team started the season off with a road trip to a solid Grinnell team.
Even though we lost the meet 4 to 7 The girls did some really nice things for the first meet of the season. Conditions was very cold and windy but I thought the girls handled it really well.
Picking up Wednesday night was Presley Blommers at number one singles, Lucy, Roach, and number two singles, the duel also paired up and picked up their first doubles win of the season. We also had a win at number three doubles.
We have a quick turnaround with a couple of practices before playing Thursday at Pella Christian.

The JV girls didn’t fare so well either picking up two wins versus five losses.
The girls did have some good points and good rallies with me in such a young team.
