Now we have some quotes from some of the players. When asked the question what's the best part of tennis Poppy who started playing this year answered, ¨being with the team and just playing as a team.¨ Meg Wilson was asked why did you choose to play tennis. She who has been playing tennis for 2 years (including this year) answered, ¨my mom was the coach of the high school team and all of my siblings have done it so I figured I should give it a try and then I just fell in love with it.¨
Edgewood has a great tennis team that I hope to see playing next year. The hard work and effort put into their passion is incredible and thanks to kelly sholl, the coach of the 2023 tennis season. The whole team is just so together it's heartwarming. I look forward to seeing the 8th graders move up and play for the high school team if they choose to! Thats all for my article see you next time.
