Tuesday the Lady Gryphon Tennis team played their final home match of the season and blanked Southern Nash 9-0. Thursday is the final regular match of the season and with a victory it is possible for a tie for first place with Fike. The only problem Northern Nash is the team we have to beat and you know Northern enjoys beating Rocky Mount especially if Rocky Mount can lose something like a championship if Northern can knock them off.
Their win last week over Fike has propelled the Lady Gryphons to #5 in the latest tennis rankings.
They are now 15-3 on the season. In conference play the lady Gryphons have played 69 individual matches and doubles matches. They have won fifty nine and lost only ten. In the head to head competition with Fike in two matches they have lost 10 matches while winning eight. That means our girls have not loss one point to any other conference team. They have all been shutouts.
Tennis begins the conference tournament at Barton college next Monday.
Today the soccer team beat Nash Central 8-3 at the soccer field. They are now 5-1 in conference action and they host Hunt Monday. Hunt put the one in the loss column on the Gryphons earlier this year so Monday is a biggie if the soccer team has any thoughts of the league championship. Hunt remains unbeaten in the conference. Their victory today is #14 in 17 tries. They have only one lost and two ties.
JV Football travels to Nash Central Thursday night, Varsity host Nash Central Friday. This is the first conference game of the season for football so the three straight losses will be a distance memory if they can get back on the winning track for the rest of the season. I think you will see more long gainers like you have come to expect from Gryphon football, mostly due to to the Big east is down in football from top to bottom.
Only Southern Nash has a winning record. Hunt is 3-3, Rocky Mount 2-3, Nash Central 2-4, Fike 2-4 and Northern 0-6.
