That (stamina) was probably the worst thing. Everything was bothering me, the wind and the way he (McNeil) played didn't help.
There has to be some type of record that's been broken already. I don't think I've ever heard of a team that's been this successful, in the history of high school sports, any sport. It takes the words right out of your mouth because you're so amazed.
Usually our doubles teams are (especially) strong. This year all four singles players have stepped up. We're all playing well and that has helped us continue our success.
My ground strokes are my strength. I rely on them to produce some winners and some errors by the other player. I like coming into the net since I'm taller. But I have to work on my volleys.
I have come back before from scores like that. I am happy. I decided to give it one last push to at least make a match of it. I kept pushing and trying to be consistent. I had to keep playing. There was no sense giving up at 5-2, especially in the championship match.
He (Christopher) was very consistent. He did not have much pace on the ball so I had trouble early. I was glad to pull it out. Trust me, I'm tired right now, especially when it is that close and could have gone either way. We both played tough, and that's what it's all about.
