NNHS girls tennis doubles team heads to state

On Friday, Oct. 17, seniors Abbie Boswell and Jessica Hu took home a Huskie victory in a big win for the varsity girls tennis team.

As a doubles team, Boswell and Hu are heading to state next weekend after having won all three matches at sectionals. They were the only qualifiers from the NNHS team. Boswell celebrated her win, especially against tough opponents like Lisle High School, Wheaton North High School and Glenbard South High School.

“It felt great to win,” Boswell said. “It was a really tough match, and our opponents were really good. We won 7-6 in the tiebreaker so it was obviously really close.”

Boswell said that she will improve her game by practicing her volleys and overheads before the IHSA state match next weekend, which will take place at Buffalo Grove High School on Thursday, Oct. 23, Friday, Oct. 24, and Saturday, Oct. 25.
