I was recently able to interview Norton High School's own, tennis superstar Olivia Christy. Olivia has been an athlete all her life and started playing and watching when she was only five-years-old. Olivia has played tennis, basketball, and volleyball and participated in gymnastics and dance, as well. Tennis has always been her top sport and she has been playing for 12 years. When she isn't playing tennis, she can be found watching football usually either the New England Patriots or Denver Broncos. Olivia loves watching and playing sports in her free-time and always has an opinion on what's going on.
I asked Olivia what the best sporting moment she has been a part of and she stated "when I went to sectionals for tennis my junior year and made it to the second round" which is a great accomplishment. Christy has not suffered any sports-related injuries in her life. When asked about coaches and teammates Olivia said she thinks coaches must be knowledgeable and teammates are needed for support and encouragement. Olivia has a strong opinion on steroid use and said "I don't like them they're gross and pathetic" and thinks they should not be tolerated under any circumstances. Olivia is looking forward to the upcoming tennis season as captain and hopes she will once again qualify for sectionals.
