Kelly wins City !!!

My niece, Kelly Fritz, won the Indianapolis High School Tennis Tournament! Got a call last night around 1AM from her, when she won - so after a few minutes of total confusion, I was able to piece it all together.

In case you don't follow the sport, here's the local article when they thought she could win it, and here's the next article when she actually did.

Not to sound like a too proud Uncle, but the short of it is...it's a big deal. Kelly chose Arsenal over several private schools because of diversity and academics (don't hear that too often). And no one knows the last time someone from a public high school won the city tournament over the dominant private schools (the records don't seem to go back that far). Oh yeah, and she's a freshman.

Sorry we missed it Kelly, sending something from afar.

And this later addition, a new article to read (and yes, I'm the uncle).
