The Eagles advance to the state tournament quarterfinals were they will play undefeated Branson Monday at Branson High School. He wobbled a little when Jack went up , and he was tremendous. His brother, Carter, poured a bottle of water on him on a 90 degree day. It was a feel-good moment for the senior, who lost to Forrest earlier in the season. My goal was to get my team another match to play and we deserved that this whole season.
We said at the beginning of the season we would win districts and we did that. It was on me to bring the district title home to us. He said he just had to focus. You have to get that backhand in. You have to get that serve in and keep the ball in play. Once I started thinking about that, I succeeded. It just paid off today. Him and Drink, we count on them. Photo credit: Michael Smith.
