| wow. alot has happened! Our tennis season is almost over. We will be heading into sections this next Friday Oct. 10 and will play team sections and then the following day will be individual sections. Currently My team is seated #1 at sections and have a bye the first round. We are all really excited and hope to earn our school its first ever team state trip in tennis. We will have to work hard, but i think we can do it. As for myself i am seated #5. I am not upset with the seed, but hope that i will do good. With a postive attitude, i hope to make it to the finals. i was out the first part of the season with a shoulder injury, but with physical therepy, it is doing better. Not 100% but good enough. so we will have to see what this upcoming week has in store for the Park Rapids Girls tennis team! |

i recently Participated in a local tennis tournament. Suprisingly many fellow competitors from the upcoming season showed up and i was ready to play my hardest. I played my first round against a girl who is a state vetren and held my ground. I lost the first set 6-4 and won the second on 6-2. Sadly I lost the third set tie breaker 7-3. I played my hardest and walked off the court scraped up from diving. I look back at my ability that day and i am very proud of myself. I know that this upcoming season i will be able to hold my ground and stand a chance against everyone. My season will start on Aug. 11 and i am mentally and physically ready! |

| I recently participated in a tennis scrimmage. Nothing big but i feel it helped me realize what I am capable of doing in the upcoming season. I didn't realize how much I have improved untill I played a girl I had a hard time getting games from in the past years, I found myself keeping up with her and making her work. My serves went really well, and my backhands felt really good. Overall I look at the day as a preview to the upcoming season. I will work hard, and go at every ball sent my way. I found that keeping a positive attitude really sets you apart from your opponents and helps you work harder with every point. |

| This past week I participated in a tennis clinic, and began to move forward in my tennis. I am now getting more comfortable in hitting my harder forehands more often. I also feel like my serves are improving, I am able to get the serve in at my first serve more and more and amaze my instructor with aces now and then. |
