11/6/2024

Deuce: Izzy Snyder ‘26 plays No. 5 singles on the girls’ tennis team as an active and dedicated hard worker, managing school work well along with this extra curricular. She is a multi-season sport player who is on the Indoor Track and Field team in winter and the Lacrosse team in spring. She considers tennis a fun team sport with a great coach. She said, “Though everyone complains about the running, it's really not that bad.” She looks forward to next season since this season just came to an end with a long road trip to Cape Henry Collegiate on Nov. 5 for the quarterfinals of the state tournament where they unfortunately lost 0-5. She likes how everyone is supportive towards each other and how close knit they are. She admires her coach, Coach Ryan Schlachter saying, "He is a good coach and even lets us stop at Crumbl sometimes.” She loves her time on the tennis team and is ready to play again next season. One of her teammates, Akali Koeda ‘28 No. 2 on the tennis team says, “She is always so positive and cheery, and she always makes practices so fun while making you feel included.” Snyder plays No. 3 doubles with Nikitha Sherigar ‘29. She is known to all her teammates as a great person who puts in the work and someone who loves their sport.
