We Played Some of Our Best Tennis Today

Suffield Academy Girls Tennis versus Deerfield Academy, April 17, 2013

The girls took advantage of our great spring weather today to put forth their best tennis this season. Deerfield’s squad was disciplined by managing their errors and sustaining quality shots with depth. On all the courts, our players matched groundstrokes very well all afternoon. At number two singles, Emily Hudson pulled out a victory from a long second set. Sarah Berchuck secured her fifth win of the season; she remains undefeated. Everyone else earned Tiger Pride as many games went to deuce and contained great rallies. The scores do not tell the whole story. Millie and Hailey fought back from 1-5 in the first set to force a tie-break. We are now working on serves more this week and gearing up for a good match against Berkshire.
