Tennis season wrap-up

By admin

Posted: November 8, 2010

The Minnehaha varsity tennis team ended this year’s season with a 7-8 record.

“We had some really tough matches, but we never gave up until the last point,” said freshman Jessamine Von Arx.

Although it was a losing season, sophomore Camille Warren and junior Carly Spanjers made it to the section semi-finals. Warren received All-Conference and senior Meera Goswitz and juniors Madeline Myers and Ali Kispert received All-Conference Honorable Mention.

“We had tough competition this year,” said Spanjers, “as a team we came together and gave every team a run for their money.”
