From the sideline: “Olivia Chong has established herself as one of the strongest singles players in the Olympic Division of the NPSL with a strong 6-1 record,” said Federal Way girls tennis coach Josh Drewry. “She has won fully half of her matches without losing a game and finished all of her victories in straight sets. Players and coaches alike have commented on Olivia’s work ethic on and off the court. Although she is a very talented and experienced player, anyone observing a match will note that she wins many points due to pushing her athleticism to the limits by sheer perseverance. Olivia never gives up on the ball or on herself. Additionally and perhaps most importantly, Olivia has set an example as a leader and exemplar of sportsmanship, supporting her teammates and opponents throughout the season.”
