Closing Out The Season On A High Note

The JV Tigers ended their regular season schedule with back to back wins against Ezell-Harding Christian School (25-18, 25-14) and Webb School (25-12, 25-15). Both of these 2 set wins displayed a ton of energy by the Tigers. These matches were also great momentum going into the weekend where they competed in the JV Region Tournament hosted by Nashville Christian School. The tournament had a total of 13 teams out of the TSSAA Middle Region that competed. The Tigers were seeded #2 out of 7 teams from our District 4.  Highlights from the tournament were that the Tigers defeated Franklin Road Academy in straight sets! We also defeated Goodpasture Christian School for the second time meeting them this season! There were two matches where our back were against the wall, facing likely defeat, and the Tigers dug in with grit and pulled off a wins! The Tigers made it to the semi-finals on Saturday where they were ultimately defeated by the champions: Providence Christian Academy. Player highlights: Elinor Bird's serving - She scores 70% of the time when she serves!!! Huge stat for us and her! Also, Johanna Neff took opportunity to step in during a couple matches and bring some great energy and excitement to the team dynamic. Captains: Yori Crozier, Maddison Rhodes and Zoe Russell contributed in needful and substantial ways. They definitely led this team all season. Madison Rhodes and Zoe Russell were named to the all-regional team. We finished the season with a 14-5 record for all games (including tournaments) played. Great season Lady Tigers!!
