What an exciting night of competition! Our Varsity team kicked things off with a nail-biter, winning the first match against AlWood 200–180 in a tie-breaker! 🧠🔥

Our JV team also put in a strong effort, battling through two tough matches against Knoxville. Though they came up short, they showed great determination and teamwork. 💪✨
Great job to all our players—onward and upward!
