Highland senior Ally Haynes Enjoys Stellar Tennis Career
Ally Haynes, a 17-year-old Highland senior, takes a three-month break from all sports after a standout tennis run. A two-time Gazette MVP and three-time All-Gazette selection, she posted a 32-13 season despite a worsening left hip injury and led Highland to the Suburban League American Conference title, then advanced to the OHSA state tournament and OTCA semifinals. Her 93-29 career record includes three varsity seasons, and she plans six weeks of therapy before deciding college majors and possibly returning in lacrosse. Haynes carries a 5.2 GPA and a 35 ACT, with pursuits in economics, business, or finance at Vanderbilt, Harvard, Yale, Stanford, or Duke.
