School: Columbia
Sport: Tennis, 2-year varsity member
Senior Salute: “What I will miss most about playing tennis is the great sportsmanship and the sport itself. Tennis has brought so much happiness to me and strength also. I love giving my teammates some pep talks before a game or at practice. It makes the bond so much stronger and that’s what matters the most to me. Meeting new people was such a great experience to me and traveling to away games as well. Great sportsmanship will take you a long way.”
Looking ahead: “As my senior year is coming to an end I will be attending Santa Fe College to pursue my career to be successful in life. I know in the near future I see a bright way guiding me.”
Senior Salute is an ongoing series from the LCR to honor the seniors who lost their spring seasons due to covid-19. If your coach hasn’t reached out to you, you can also reach out to us.
