Wildcats travel to the Bulls

John Kelly
VA Boys JV Tennis travelled to Holderness New Hampshire and the home of the Holderness Bulls JV Tennis team. With many players doing double duty in singles and doubles, fitness was at a premium.
As the singles matches unfolded we were tested in both serve and volley. In #1 Singles Kihoon Song continued to step up. Kihoon played well but succumbed 4-8. The #2 singles match featured The rapidly rising Peter Zhao laying down some rocket serves, including 3 aces. Peters match ended with a 3-8 result. Luis Apelfeld stepped out of his role in # 1 doubles due to his partners injury and battled to a 7-7 score before giving up the final 2 games for a 7-9 result. The final match of the day featured JunSeo Lee and Danny Ye battling to a 9-7 win. I am very impressed with the members of the team who show up every day and put in the work to improve and share the effort needed to have a solid team experience while enjoying the sport of tennis. Our next event is a rematch at Cardigan Mountain School. Come out and witness the action.
