MUSKEGON – “It’s so surreal.”
Morgan McConn’s journey has led her to MHSAA Finals on multiple occasions, but this season victory became a reality as the top seed at the Division 4 singles championships brought home the crown.
The Bronson senior had reached the Finals all of the past three years, with a trip to the quarterfinals as a freshman her previous best run. This season saw McConn capitalize on the culmination of the work she has put in during her high school career.
With her vast Finals experience, McConn recognizes the difficulty and pressure that goes into succeeding at the highest level.
“You can say all year that you're going to go to state, but you don't really know until Regionals. And then when I got here (I’m) obviously really nervous. I just had to stay positive,” she said.
McConn’s junior season ended in the first round of bracket play as she fell to Burton Atherton’s Reagan Baker. In this year’s championship match, McCann defeated Baker 407-302 amid the intense Northway Lanes atmosphere.
“It’s been a pleasure to have Morgan on my team. This is like accumulation of all her work. (I’m) so proud of her,” said Bronson head coach Leah Friedel.
As the senior’s career comes to a close, McConn recognized that the last frame would cap her final high school meet.
“I knew I won,” McConn said, “but all I could think about was how it is my last time in high school with friends.”
