If you noticed a police escort going through the streets of Wellesley on Saturday, that’s what the excitement was all about.
The Raiders only lost 1 match all season and were the #4 ranked team in the tournament. Boasting a young line-up the team rose to the challenge and head into next season with a ton of confidence. Freshmen Bella Gopen and Kimmy Tai won their singles matches, as did junior Sarah Mackey. Mia Chung and Sari Hart earned Wellesley another point with a doubles victory.
Wellesley last won the state title in 2016.
