GLEGHORN PERSPECTIVE

 

• "France, Emily, and Ellie put on the hard hats and went to work today in singles!  Between the three of them they only lost 1 game in six sets. It was one of our best matches up and down the lineup and everybody played well and looked to be ready for Saturday's match against Marian. We are peaking at the right time and hopefully we can keep it up for one more match and qualify for nationals! We really hope to get a good crowd there before everyone heads out to the football game."
