Alivia Sherer To Compete At State
Senior Alivia Sherer will
make her third trip to 3-1A state tennis on Friday, the only Rossville girl to
ever play at the state meet.
Sherer will take on the competition gathered
at Kossover Tennis Center in Topeka this weekend while her team, the Hayden
Wildcats, sends six girls to 4A state at Prairie Village. Sherer joined the
Hayden team her freshman year via a co-op agreement because Rossville does not
offer a tennis program. The arrangement requires that, come playoff time, the
Rossville players compete in their home school’s level of classification.
The arrangement allowed Sherer to make a new set of friends and
to enjoy the team experience she wouldn’t otherwise have had.
Being the outsider wasn’t
easy at first, Sherer recalled, but she never had to do it alone. Each of the
Past four years at least one other Rossville girl has joined Sherer on the
Hayden team.
