A big week of March 11. A big win at Mars Hill vs. Marshall. 9-0 with a number of lower ladder players having the opportunity to play reg. and exhibition.
March 13 saw a big win at Draughn HS in Rutherford College. Our #1 lost out in a tie breaker. We had a number of lower ladder players having the opportunity to play reg. and exhibition.matches. We are pretty deep and we need that as we often do not have all of our top 6 available due to academics. A satisying 8-1 win.

It was a cool night, but at least the wind was relatively light. The NCSSM-Morganton traveled to Granite Falls Recreation Center (the S. Caldwell courts are being re-done but have not been completed. They do not have lights.) Played with 4 hard courts. A great first match opener with the expected jitters for both teams. The match came down to #3 doubles, a match that put NCSSM in front to take a very competitive match 5-4.
Next up is Thomas Jefferson in a non-conference and then N. Buncombe followed by Patton. NCSSM was without it's number one player. See the MaxPrep box scores for details.
