plying a smart game

On April 17, 2000 the Radford University tennis team played a very important match against Elon college in North Carolina. The winner of this match would play as seed number two in the Big South Conference tournament. Eventually, our place in the Big South Conference tournament depended on the result of my match against Elon’s number four player. During the match I knew that he was better than me and I didn’t expect to win. …showed first 75 words of 749 total…

…showed last 75 words of 749 total…rest in the shadow of a tree. The match was over. Nobody could believe it -- I won the match! This was my biggest win of the season and also the hardest match I had played all year. Everybody was proud of me and all the people clapped. I was so happy because, I knew that I had won against a better player only because I played my best and was smarter than he was.
