VARSITY TENNIS RESULTS

Wellington hosted a five-team Round Robin meet yesterday afternoon and took FIRST OVERALL!

Freshman Logan Robinson played in the #1 Singles slot for this meet, and ended up in a 3-way tie going 2-2 on the day, but finished 2nd overall after tiebreaker criteria was considered.  Head Coach Brian Aufdengarten said, "Logan never gave up and fought hard, she will get better each day.  Our matches are longer than middle school and she will adjust, she has some solid strokes and will be fun to watch."  

Varsity Volleyball was at Wichita Collegiate tonight for a triangular with Rose HIll and Collegiate. Coach Hopper reports it was a little bit of a rough start coming off of the four-day weekend with a loss to Collegiate in two sets (17-25 and 11-25), but the team rallied and beat Rose Hill in three sets (25-23, 21-25, 25-22)! Hopper says, "We improved with each set and we look forward to carrying the momentum into next Tuesday!"
