Kelsey Haviland


Kelsey Haviland won an individual state tennis title as a freshman and a team state title as a sophomore. But the Dayton Oakwood senior wanted to make an already bright tennis career a little more brilliant. The solution? A trip to the Sunshine State. Haviland honed her game at the Nick Saviano High Performance Tennis Academy in Sunrise, Fla., last fall. She has since returned to anchor the No. 1 singles spot for the Jills.

OAKWOOD ? Kelsey Haviland won an individual state tennis title as a freshman and a team state title as a sophomore. But the Oakwood High School senior wanted to make an already bright tennis career a little more brilliant, especially with college recruiters watching.
The solution? A trip to the Sunshine State.

Haviland honed her game at the Nick Saviano High Performance Tennis Academy in Sunrise, Fla., last fall. She has since returned to the Dayton suburb to anchor the No. 1 singles spot for the Jills. A young Oakwood team is currently ranked No. 1 in the Miami Valley Tennis Coaches Association.

:( The Ladies doubles team beats the top ranked team then loses.

COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Just one day after knocking off the top-seeded doubles team in the tournament, [URL="https://admin.xosn.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=17300&ATCLID=1057202"]Angela DiPastina[/URL] and [URL="https://admin.xosn.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=17300&ATCLID=1057206"]Christina Keesey[/URL] were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the ITA National Indoor Championships at the Racquet Club of Columbus.
Facing Romy Farah and Caren Seenuth of Miami (Fla.), DiPastina and Keesey fell behind early and were not able to rally. Down 6-1, the Buckeye pair rallied to make the score 7-3. The gap, however, was too much to overcome. Ohio State dropped the last game to lose 8-3. Farah and Seenuth, although unranked together, are ranked nationally with other members of the Miami team.
The loss came just one day after the marquee upset of the tournament, a win over the top-seeded and No. 1-ranked duo from William & Mary, 9-7, in the opening round. The Tribe?s Megan Moulton-Levy and Katarina Zoricic were the tournament?s defending champion and finalists at the 2007 NCAA Tournament.
DiPastina continued action in consolation singles after falling Thursday

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
0509hubbs_05-09-08_C6_JBA5E5O.jpg

Cami Hubbs, 19, has won 36 singles matches this season, easily surpassing the Ohio State record.



From almost the time she could grip it, Cami Hubbs dreamed of doing wondrous things with a tennis racket.
It mattered little that her dreams were bigger than her vocabulary.
"I wanted to be an All-American at age 5," said Hubbs, a 19-year-old Ohio State tennis player. "I didn't even know what being an All-American meant, but I heard my dad, who's a tennis coach, talking about it and it sounded really cool."
Hubbs isn't backpedaling from her childhood ambition even as she has grown to understand how difficult it might be to achieve it.
