Two years ago, with the sports world stuck in neutral, Violet Robbins was wondering when her tennis game would again take flight.
After trading Connecticut for Florida, and picking up an additional sport along the way, the Bolles sophomore is now a Sunshine State runner-up on the court and the Times-Union's All-First Coast girls tennis player of the year for 2022. Robbins also helped Bolles to the Region 1-1A championship in girls golf in the fall. She shot a 76 in the regional finals at St. Johns Golf and Country Club, good for fifth among individuals, and earned a berth on the annual All-First Coast girls team.
"Just finding that last push to win seven points in a row and win 11-9, that's what keeps you going," she said. So rather than choose between her favorite sports, she made the move to Bolles, where she said she quickly adjusted to her new surroundings with the support of her teammates and coaches."Every time she stepped on the court, she delivered," she said.
"It was just a different atmosphere for me altogether," she said,"because of the whole feeling of being part of the team, which I'd never experienced before."
