ELKMONT JV TAKE SECOND

Elkmont's JV Lady Devils have had an up and down season this fall.  With the exception of one tenth grader, our JV team is made up all ninth graders. This talented group of girls were the Middle School Champs last year and moving to the high school level as been a learning experience.  They are adjusting quickly and after eight season matches are showing signs of what might be.  The Lady Devils took second in a eight team field - Randolph, East, Athens, Giles County, TN, East Lawerance, Ardmore, West Limestone and Elkmont.

The teams were split into pool play where they played each of the other teams before being placed in the main draw.  Elkmont's group was West Limestone, Giles County and Athens.  The Lady Devils won all their pool play matches in straight games (a match is best 2 out 3 games).   We sent Randolph home with out any trouble....we did lose to the defending 2012 JV County Champs of Ardmore but still held our own.  Very proud of our Lady Devils and looking forward to a rematch with Ardmore in the County Tournament, October 7th and 8th.

The JV team will be playing Athens Bible School and Randolph this week.  Both matches will be at Elkmont.  Good luck, Elkmont!!!!
