Final Athlete of the Week of the season also receives Tennis Player of Year honors

Magill also competed on Quabbin’s field hockey and indoor track teams

Last week, The Gardner News put out a vote to let readers have a say in the winner of The Gardner News Tennis Player of the Year. The results of the poll, along with votes from the staff, were combined to decide the winner.

Earning a whopping 87.89% of the fan poll – the most of any polls thus far – and favored by staff votes was Quabbin’s Annabelle Magill.

Magill was a star for Quabbin girls’ tennis this season, serving as the Panthers’ first singles player. She won 16 of her 19 singles matches, absolutely dominating on the court and leading Quabbin to a 17-3 record.

Along with being talented on the court, she is also a skilled leader and three-sport athlete for Quabbin. Her contributions have been huge for the school’s athletics.

Magill was particularly confident this season, after bouncing around from different singles spots in her prior seasons and finally landing at first singles for her senior year.

She, and other seniors Carlee Rich and Camryn Orsini, had to step up her sophomore year after graduating a large group of seniors, leaving behind a young and less experienced team.

Magill’s consistency in both playing and leading since then led Quabbin to a Sweet 16 appearance in the state tournament this season.
