For the first time in five years, the Darien High School Girls’ Varsity Tennis team beat its rival, New Canaan.
The No 1. player, and captain, DHS Senior Jenna Murray dominated, winning 6-3 and 6-1. Fellow captain and Senior Sarah Alptekin played doubles with Catherine Hatfield and won 6-1, 6-2.
The Darien Times reported coach Davin Gebauer saying, “(it’s) more important for our two seniors, It’s been a long time since beating NC!”
For these seniors, it was their teams first time beating the Rams. The girls previously lost to Wilton and Greenwich, so this win is huge.
The team's next match is tomorrow against Trinity Catholic at 3 p.m. at Scalzi Park.
