NAUGATUCK — The Naugatuck girls tennis team brushed aside its inexperience and put together a solid 2013 season — and next year should be even better.

Satisfying season for Hawks
BEACON FALLS — In a moment that was one of only a few lows in the Woodland girls tennis season, Hawks coach Jess DeGennaro found solace and satisfaction. When Woodland dropped the Naugatuck Valley League team tennis final to Watertown last month, DeGennaro wasn’t devastated by the upset. Instead, she stepped back and saw... »
Woodland duo nets gold
Last year, Woodland’s Liz Martin and Hope Gavigan fought through an all-day, five-match, 63-game marathon to finish as the runners-up in the Naugatuck Valley League doubles tournament.

BEACON FALLS — The Woodland girls tennis team came away with a 6-1 win over Naugatuck on Monday but the match was a lot closer than the final margin would suggest. One hour into the contest, the single matches were still on court. The Hawks (7-0) prevailed in three of those four matches but... »
Easy going for Greyhounds early on
NAUGATUCK — The Naugatuck girls tennis team is in the thick of the Naugatuck Valley League race after jumping out to a 6-1 start to this season.

Hawks pick up where they left off
BEACON FALLS — Not even a lost bus driver on opening day could stop Woodland from a fast start to the girls tennis season. The Hawks arrived late at St. Paul on April 3 and notched a 5-2 victory — the first of four in a row to start the season, all coming without... »
Hawks seek to carry momentum into new season
BEACON FALLS — Familiar faces can be seen all around the net for the Woodland girls tennis team.
