COACH SHIGLEY SAYS…

“I don’t think people appreciate the level of high quality play by our women’s tennis team. We just beat a team in the middle of the pack for our league and lost a total of six games in nine matches. We didn’t lose a game in doubles. Our girls are playing extremely well right now. If we can bring home a victory vs. Goshen tomorrow, we will lock up the Crossroads League regular season title. I know our girls will be ready.”
