From Girls Tennis Head Coach, Karl Thomsen:

  • “Hats off to our girls for battling through 85-degree plus heat against two very tough opponents. I was really pleased with how our #1 doubles team of Eliina Brazeau and Cecelia Jaccuzo dug deep and pulled out both their matches after dropping the first set. Also a hats off to our #4 singles player, Natalie Deneau, for splitting two three set matches against a couple of very consistent young ladies.”
