(Senior Katie McDuffie)
Robert Toombs Christian Academy's Varsity Tennis teams traveled to Pinewood Christian Academy on March 29, 2021. The Crusaders finished the day with a 2-4 girls match win/loss and a Boys 5-1 win/loss record.
"We are improving from match to match and that's what the regular season is about. We will face tough opponents this season and that's what our players need to see to be better prepared for the state competitions. Freshman Drew Vaughn took a match to 14-12 for the win. We had multiple athletes play both singles and doubles matches and that is tough to do in the same day. We were mixing up our groups to get a better feel of where we are as a team," states Tennis Coach Jacob Lord.
The Crusaders will take on Memorial on the 12th of April for the first region match of the season.
