9/17/16 - 1st Serve Tournament
Congratulations to the Lady Pilots Tennis Team for a great showing during a tough tournament
at West Torrance in the SCTA's Pete Brown 1st Serve Tournament. The tournament features close to 40 top Southern
California schools competing at 3 different sites for this annual tournament.
The Lady Pilots drew JW North (Riverside), Simi Valley & West Torrance for their round-robin
play. The tournament gave the team the opportunity to mix-and-match different combinations of players at singles &
doubles against some great competition, and a chance to identify the areas that the team needs to work on & improve while
gaining valuable experience.
The star of the
day was definitely Ingrid Escarrega who showed her grit as she battled 2 of her 3 opponents to a tie-break, while many other
matches also featured close scores as well.
The
day ended with a team outing to enjoy some more team-building/bonding time as they gorged themselves on Red Robin Gourmet
Burgers.
Overall, the event was a great success
in terms of the team's goals for the day & the season, as well as a great time of sisterhood!
