Trojans sweep Hillsboro triangular
Hillsboro High School girls' tennis team beat Smoky Valley and Wichita Collegiate Sept. 13 at the Hillsboro triangular.
The Trojans defeated the Vikings in opening play, 6-3, and took down Collegiate 8-1.
Head coach Lynn Wiebe was able to play both varsity and junior varsity players at the meet.
"They are doing a significantly better job of moving the ball from side to side rather than just hitting up the middle," she said. "I'm also seeing a much better use of different kinds of shots.
