Rachel Dingley '20 Recruiting Profile

I’ve been playing tennis since i was 7 or 8 years old, and have dedicated so much of my time over the years to tennis. I always try to work my hardest when it comes to tennis and am always focused on improving my game. I spend so much time on the court, whether it be practicing my serves or helping young kids develop their love for tennis. At my club, I help teach tennis to young kids aging anywhere from 4 to about 12. With that and my practices and lessons, my schedule is filled with tennis and I am prepared to do the same in college wholeheartedly. However, with my busy tennis schedule, I have not once let it effect my grades and have maintained the honor-roll my entire high school career. On the court, i’m quite competitive and absolute love the reward of winning against an amazing player. I like working and improving my game and think that college tennis could help me do that. I also love watching my teammates play their matches, and absolutely love the team aspect that comes with high school tennis. The support that I receive from my team and I can give to them is amazing. I hope that I am able continue to play competitively in college and have another amazing team share what I love with :)
