Coach Matt Nielson was proud of the way his team played on Friday. Here is what he had to say, “We lost to both Mandan and Dickinson last year.  This year, we were playing without our #2 and our #7 and we still managed to win both.  Hats off to our players that stepped up.  Seniors Trinity Nelson and Faith Orner played in their first varsity match of the season and won the match that clinched the victory versus Dickinson!  Trinity followed that up with winning the clinching match against Mandan with Georgia.  Nice Job Ladies!”

Coach Nielson then had this to say about the Sheyenne Invite, “The Sheyenne Invite is 9 different draws with 19 participants per draw.  All 19 teams in the state participate, so it is one entry per team per draw.  We play 6 different singles tournaments and 3 different doubles tournaments at 9 different locations throughout West Fargo and Fargo.”

Highlights from the Sheyenne Invite:

Abby and Abby went 3-1 and took 3rd place at #2 doubles.

Olivia and Breck got to 9-9 in the super tiebreaker to go to the #1 doubles semifinals.

Kailee took a set off of the #1 singles 5th place finisher.

Georgia made it all the way to the consolation championship at #2 singles.

Alyssa/Trinity and Ella earned wins on the day.

Faith O, Faith K, and Chelsea all played in their first varsity matches of their careers.
