Sterling's Danielle Burke got the opportunity to play two Lady Tigers Sr.
Brittany Gillilan and Jr.
Brittany Longoria.
In the first match,
Brittany Gillilan lost the first set 4-6 and then found her groove in the second set winning it easily 6-0. The third set was played as a ten point tie breaker which was won by Gillilan 10-7.
In the second match
Brittany Longoria played Burke and defeated her 8-2. Coach Nelson commented, "It's not the normal way to win a dual, but a win is a win. Hopefully it will translate into future wins later in the season."
