PAGVT Defeats BB&N, Advances to Semifinals

PA entered tournament play on a beautiful Saturday morning in Andover focused, fearless, and fueled (many thanks to Evelyn's family for sponsoring a team breakfast from Crack'd!). The girls faced stiff opposition from BB&N, but thanks to all three doubles teams winning their matches and two decisive victories at first singles (Nitya Madduri '28) and second singles (Kendra Tomala '26), the girls were able to earn a 5-0 win to advance to the semifinals.

On the other courts, Groton and Greenwich Academy battled for over an hour longer, with Groton emerging victorious after two 10-point tiebreak wins at 4 and 5 singles.

PAGVT will face Groton later on Saturday in the Semifinals.
