The girls will be playing at Cary Grove on Monday, at Mundelein on Tuesday, at Libertyville on Thursday, and finally at the Power Invitational on Saturday.

“We had a lot of issues to work out in the beginning but we’re finally working as a team and the result of that is really impressive,” Ali Summers, varsity player, said.

This coming week, the girls will be playing at Fremd on Wednesday and at the JHHS invite at Hersey High School.
