Last weekend, the Mustangs traveled to Antioch, Lakes, and Grant High Schools to compete in the North Suburban Conference Tournament. In spite of the windy and cold weather conditions, the girls gave it their all.

At #2 Singles, Rosie Powers lost her first match to Warren, but bounced back to beat Lakes. However, she was bounced out of the tournament by Grant.
At #1 Doubles, Liska Wittenberg and Kristina Kozova, won their first match against Zion Benton in straight sets, however in the next round they lost a three setter to Lake Zurich.
In the back draw, the girls beat Lakes and Stevenson due to default.
In the Consolation championship, the girls had a couple of match point opportunities, but couldn't finish it losing in a third set tie breaker. At #2 Doubles, Andrea Scarim and Katelynn Koepke, who were the #3 seed going in defeated Lakes 6-0, 6-0. However, in the next round they faced a tough Stevenson team and lost 3-6, 4-6.
In the back draw, they defeated North Chicago, Antioch, and Libertyville in straight sets to walk away with a Consolation Championship (5th Place) medals.
At #3 Doubles, Cynthia Panganiban and Karlie Alms, drew a tough first round match against Stevenson and fell 4-6, 5-7.
In the back draw, the girls defeated Vernon Hills, Antioch, and Grant in straight sets to advance to the Consolation Championship match for a rematch with the same Stevenson team that had knocked them out of the main draw. The team played tough winning the first set 6-4, but dropped the 2nd set 4-7 in a tie breaker and eventually dropped the match in the 3rd set 4-6.
Overall, the girls played great throughout the weekend and the team finished in 8th place, a drop from last years 5th place finish.
