Here is the recap from head coach Kristin Unverzagt.
From Tuesday:
We played Litchfield in the first round and lost a tight battle, 3-4. They are a strong team and we had many players take it to three sets. The girls should be proud of their efforts!
The team came out strong in the second match with a 6-1 win over Crookston. Our team stepped up to battle strong and advance to today's match.
I am so proud of the team and how they represented PC! You could see their nerves in the first few games, but they focused in and battled hard once they found their groove. They worked hard, created a game plan, and played smart. I am so excited for them and it is so fun to see them shine and have fun at the state tournament! Today is going to be another fun day!

From Wednesday:
This update is sent with mixed emotion as it is sad to see our team season come to an end, but I could not be more proud of the girls for their hard work and adversity this season!
We fought a tough battle, but fell 2-5 to Rochester Lourdes in the consolation championship. Our 2nd and 3rd doubles stepped up to get our first two points. Their aggressive and smart play was evident in their shot selection. Our first doubles team battled hard against the #1 seeded doubles team but fell short in a third set tiebreaker. The singles teams also battled hard and gave their opponents a tough fight. I am so proud of all of their efforts!
Tomorrow, Ella Sell will compete in the individual tournament at 8:00 AM against Abby Morris from Park Rapids.
