WE WON DISTRICT!! Hooorahh!! We didn't get a trophy...but, we got a banner that goes up in the gym.
We had our last game yesterday against Dulles. All 4 girls won including my partner and I, (8,4). We played like two big losers!! It was ridiculous.
It would have been 8, 3 if the other team didn't cheat. So it was deuce, and the girl hits me a drop shot. I run up to the net and hit an awesome shot angled in the alley while tripping over my other foot and falling. I was on the ground, looking at the ball sideways and I could still see it go in. So they didn't get the ball and it was in. We won the game. Those two girls stared at us like we were from outer space.
GIRL - That was out.
ME - Are you kidding??
DARBY (my partner) - Are you sure?
GIRL2 - Well, from my point of view it was out ...but, it was a good shot.
ME - Okkkk..so was it in or out??
GIRL - Out.
GIRL2 - But, we can replay it.
You don't replay a point unless you know in your head, it was in. Cheaters.
But, in any case, we still won the match, and districts soo HOORAH cheaters!!

Congrats mer! I like that trophy picture. You find the best little pics. Maybe that girl was just doubting herself after she heard herself say it was out and didn't know what else to do with the doubt except offer to replay it. Who knows? But at least you won in the end so all's well that ends well. : )
What's really sad is that they cheated and still lost. All the guilt and no glory to pacify the pain.
Yesssssssssssss.
JK. Great job! And better job for taking the out call and not letting it shake you down.
So proud of you!
In the immortal words of Ricky Bobby: You're just a big hairy American winning machine, you know? ...
That is so awesome Mer! I was not aware you were such a tennis champion but I am so happy for you! Thanks for sharing!
