Well, I guess we need to make room on Millie's trophy shelf another First Place trophy. She played in a tennis tournament today at Floyd Central. She has not picked up a racquet in over a month due to her constant and never ending softball season (more on that later, we are not finished).
They youngest category they have is 10 and under so that is where she has to play even though she is only 7. She played in this same category last year at age 6.
There were only 3 girls signed up to play so they did a round robin and the each played the other 2 girls. Millie's first opponent was only 6 years old but she was really good. I'd say she was much better at age 6 than Millie was. She will be an amazing player in a few years. Every game was close but Millie ended up winning the match 8-3.
Millie's next match was against a 10 year old from Jasper. This little girl was very good too but Millie also beat her 8-3.
Since Millie beat them both, that put her first place. The tournament director didn't have a trophy for her because at the time of ordering trophies, they had no one in this category signed up but he will order her one and get it to us.
Millie had a great time and was excited to tell her coach how she did.
