TENNIS
Northampton Community College freshman Megan Groh defeated Rebekah Reyes of Harrisburg CC 6-0; 6-1 to win the PCAA Women’s Singles Championship played at the Hillcrest Racquet Club.

Megan plans to return to NCC next year to defend her title. Groh and teammate Eden Fimiano also advanced to the finals in doubles where they were defeated by Liz Clark and Erin Neidig of Harrisburg 6-3, 6-7 (7-3), 7-6 (8-6).
