NORWICH – Rain delays and backups to the schedule forced Norwich and Windsor girls tennis to double up on matches this past Friday, resulting in a doubleheader win for the lady Tornado at 6-1.

“We played a doubleheader, beating a rebuilding Windsor team with a new coach. We played some good tennis and took care of business,” said Norwich head coach John Stewart. “We beat them twice and move to a 4-1 record coming into this week, which is a good confidence booster, preparing them for this week with three tough matches coming up in a row.”

Norwich handily slid by the lady Black Knights for the two 6-1 wins on the day, Friday, September 15.

Due to the playing of back-to-back matches and being limited for time, the two squads played a pro set style of play.

The lone difference was a mix-up of positions at third doubles – the rest of the matches saw similar results.

“The third doubles team that beat us the time sat and she brought in two new girls. We beat them the second time and Olivia lost her match to the second match to the same girl.
