Girls’ Tennis: Asahi Goods ’24
Asahi had a huge match on Wednesday going up against Poly Prep. In a close one, she gutted out a victory in three sets, helping her team pull off a 3-2 win over Poly. Her ground strokes were incredibly strong as she controlled points and moved her opponent all around the court. Even more impressive was the mental game and competitive edge she displayed, as her focus, intensity and level of play only improved as the points got bigger. Congratulations to Asahi!
