Tennis at Provincials
The Senior Tennis Team placed 4th at the BCSSTA AA Tennis Provincials this past weekend. The team advanced to the Championship side of the draw after splitting their Pool Play matches on Thursday. On Friday morning, Shawnigan was all over Sa-Hali of Kamloops and won easily. Their next match was against Lambrick Park of Victoria in the semi-finals; unfortunately, the ball was bouncing the wrong way for our team and they lost 6-5. On Saturday morning, the team was playing for the bronze medal against Mulgrave of Vancouver. The match was very exciting and it came down to the final mixed doubles match. This match went to a tie-breaker and unfortunately our mixed doubles team lost 9-7, making the final score 6-5 in favour of Mulgrave.
The team would like to thank all the parents that came out to support during the tournament, and to Mr. Housser for supporting them on Saturday.
