My name is Sara and I love to play and compete in tennis. I'm 5'1" and 120 pounds. I've been playing since summer of my 8th grade outside of school and all years on the Varsity team at my High School. As a player on the Ocean Lakes team, I loved associating with the other players to find out what my strengths and weaknesses are and how other peoples' strengths and weaknesses will help me become a better player. Ocean Lakes High School is in Virginia Beach, Virginia and is close to the beach. I'm looking to go to a medium to large school that has school spirit and great academic programs. When I go to college I plan on focusing on pre-law classes and then continuing on to law school after earning my Bachelor's degree. Therefore, I would love to go to a great school because I'll be spending a lot of time studying and utilizing everything the school can offer. I wish to play as a freshman and/or make a great impression on a hard-working team. I want to make a statement that shows that freshman and new players can fit in with a dedicated team.
