Tennis remains unbeaten after boys and girls beat Rabun Gap

It was another great match for the Tallulah Falls School middle school tennis teams, as both boys and girls remained unbeaten on the season following wins over Rabun Gap.

The boys won 5-0 and the girls 4-1. Both teams are now 3-0 overall on the season.

"Our boys came out strong and ready to battle, giving up only 3 games total of 40...pretty impressive," says coach Lisa Wilcox.

"Lizzi Huebner was able to pull out a win in a tough match 8-5," adds Wilcox on the girls' play. "Lizzi started off really strong and then her opponent decided to bring her game to a different level, putting Lizzi and her coach on edge, but in the end, it worked out in Lizzi's favor."

The girls' #2 doubles match was a thriller, being decided in extra sets.
