“I am so proud of this year’s team and am looking forward to next season,” said coach Rob Miller. “The best is yet to come. All three of our singles players will be returning next season with well-documented rumors of extremely talented eighth graders (freshmen next year) who will be added to the team to make the 2024 team even stronger than this year.”
All of the women who started on the varsity team—three singles players and four doubles—were elected Bay State League All Stars.
