After winning, I felt as though it really brought us together as a team because now we had a great common victory,” varsity tennis player junior Yuyu Lin, said.

After a couple months into the season, tennis varsity girls spending a lot time practicing and playing games together. 

“The tennis team overall is a really supportive community and I feel like knowing each other’s weaknesses and strengths helps all of us improve, because it tells us what we should work on more.

Overall the wins of the varsity girls team have been great for the girls and for supporters who are coming there to see their games.
