Park Hill Girls Tennis
Park Hill Girls Tennis has had quite a streak of conference success of recent years, but it came to an end last week as they lost their first conference match in several years to a talented Lee's Summit West team 7-2 with both the top singles and doubles matches going to the Titans. The Trojans shook it off later in the week with a 9-0 shutout of Ruskin with Ashleigh Bos taking the top singles match 8-1.
Park Hill Volleyball
Park Hill only played one game last week, but it was for a special cause, as the Trojans took on the Liberty North Eagles in their inaugural Dig for a Cure game. Although having defeated them two times already this season, Park Hill got down early inthe first game, but battled to a 24-24 tie before Liberty finally broke it to take a 26-24 victory. The Trojans took the second game 25-18 before the Eagles defeated them 25-21 for the 2-1 victory. Park Hill is now 10-9-1 on the season.
Coach Lindsey Hood was disappointed with the loss, but pointed out the significance of the game off the court with the $4,400 the two teams were able to raise for Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure and Camp Quality, both receiving $2,200.
"We continue to work the big picture of life and remind them that volleyball is not everything," Hood said of the event. "We were very proud of our girls and even though we lost the match, our focus was how accomplished the girls should feel.
