Congratulations to Emily Glick ’13 and Anna Fretz ’16 for winning the Doubles Championship for the Monsignor Martin League. The two athletes won a grueling doubles match in a three-set tiebreaker at the 2013 All-Catholic High School Tennis Championship on Sunday, May 19. After losing their first set 7-5, they went on to win the next set 6-1 and then a tiebreaker 8-6.
The championship win for an unlikely pair – a senior and a freshman – rounds out a terrific season of varsity tennis for Sem. The 2013 team was coached by Head Coach Andrea Abels and Assistant Coach Kacie Mills.
Emily Glick '13
Emily, a team captain, is described as a natural leader on the court. Able to keep her composure throughout a match, the graduating senior is a dominant force at the net.
Anna Fretz '16
Anna, completing her freshman year at Sem, is described as a smart player who stays one step ahead of her competition by knowing exactly where to place the ball. Her powerful serves are considered one of her strengths.
We thank Emily and Anna for representing Sem. We also congratulate them for working so well together throughout the season, and for prevailing as this year’s top doubles team in the Monsignor Martin League!
