“Today was a solid day for our team. We did a great job of adjusting to the wind. In the course of one match, the wind went from really strong, to light, back to strong again. Hastings plays with a lot of energy. Our team did a nice job of matching that positive energy. Hannah Wulf had a stellar day in both doubles and singles. Hannah did a great job of penetrating the wind with her shots. She also put the ball away at the net when she had the opportunity. Emilee Anderson had a nice come from behind win in her singles match. She was down 5-2, before winning the next 6 games. Emilee did a great job of staying patient and not rushing the point late in the match.” – KHS Head Girls Tennis Coach Troy Saulsbury
