MOSES LAKE/EPHRATA - Chelan traveled to both 2A Ephrata and 4A Moses Lake today for a rare two-location double header. We had great tennis, hot weather and 1A Chelan performed well against these two larger schools. Our young team is battling, growing and picking up big wins. Most kids played two or three matches today, giving the feel of a typical spring tournament.

Tonasket at Chelan,
April 21
In tennis, there’s this elusive thing called a “Golden Set”. It means winning a set without losing a single point. That’s 24 straight points. I’ve never seen one in my 25 year coaching career. Elle Rothlisberger did more than that - she played a “Golden Match”. She played two straight Golden Sets, winning 48 straight points. This was unicorn tennis.
Girls: Chelan 5, Tonasket 0
#1 Singles: Bella Gatzemeier def Skylar Hardesty 7-6(8-6), 6-3 <This was likely the most impressive singles win of Bella’s high school career. She played GREAT tennis and beat a quality opponent.>
