Hello-
It's over- It is amazing how we spend all this time and energy, sweat and hard work and just like that the season is over. Wednesday night we lost to Northwestern in the first round of the playoffs and finished the season 20-12. While we have a lot to be proud of, the finality of it is still a bit harsh and painful. I really don't think anyone on the team thought we'd be done yet... not after playing so well for most of October and finding a way to be successful and win all those matches!
Last night, in case you weren't there, we started out playing well the first two sets and were tied at one set apiece... then it got ugly. We struggled in just about every facet of the game (we hit negative, gave up a bunch of aces, missed serves, etc.) and dropped the last two sets that weren't even that close-
More to follow in the next week or so- I am very, very proud of how much we improved from the beginning of the season to the end. It was amazing to watch all the different players step up for us at different points of the season...
Go COUGARS!
