Vander Zwaag Leads Hamilton To State Tennis Tourney
Hamilton senior guard Josie Vander Zwaag uses a defensive mindset to reach the Division 3 state tournament in Holland. The basketball and tennis standout relies on outlasting opponents, speed, and hustle to reach and compete at Holland Christian and Hope College, with matches starting Friday. Her growth since freshman year shows in a sport she joined with little prior experience, helped by strong coaching and a pandemic-adjusted year.
