Vanessa Vazquez joined the tennis team because she realized it was a sport she could play the rest of her life. This is her second year on the team. By being part of a team, Vanessa challenges herself and sets an example for her teammates.

Vanessa’s favorite memory this season is team-bonding at their coach’s house. Her weakness is her mentality because she is easily frustrated. Her strength is her determination; she always pushes herself to get better.

Vanessa plans to keep playing tennis on her own time. A goal of hers is reaching further beyond her expectations. Vanessa’s biggest role model is her coach.

If Vanessa was stranded on a deserted island with only one person, it would be Heidi because she is Vanessa’s other half. Her favorite way to relax is running while listening to music.

Vanessa is lucky to have learned from every experience while being on the tennis team.
