Int. Girls Tennis Win
Intermediate Girls Win Close One Over MPI, 3-1
by Al Linsky
Since several girls were unavailablt to play due to other school commitments, Coach Alison made some major moves in the lineup. In the end, it all worked out well, along the way, the tension was high.
At first singles, there was a dogfight, with MPI proving to be stronger at this position on this day.
After falling behind early, the 'Iolani second singles player came back strongly to gain a very important point for the team.
First doubles was the only match where it wasn't close as the Raiders dominated.
Second doubles, though, was very close. The match was always tied or had the Raiders with a one game lead until they caught fire near the end to assure the victory for the team.
I had to leave before the third doubles team finished but I heard from a reliable source that darkness came before the match could finish.
