Rishabh Nair is the senior captain of the Jonathan Law boys tennis team. Entertainment Editor Maddy Gaillard interviewed him about the past season. 

Maddy Gaillard: How do you think the tennis season went?

Rishabh Nair: Although we didn’t meet our preseason expectations at qualifying for states, it was one of the most memorable seasons I’ve had at Law and I’ve learned a lot as not only a captain but also a player.

MG: What was your favorite moment of the season? 

RN: There have many memorable parts of this season but if I had to pick one it would be our match against Abbott Tech. The match score was tied 3-3 and it came down to the last court where our Doubles 1 team fought and won, 9-7, and with that we won the entire match, 4-3. Supporting and cheering on my teammates in that final game is what made this match so special to me.

MG: What were you most looking forward to at the start of the season? 

RN: I was most looking forward to getting some wins and working with the new players on the team to help them improve.

MG: As a senior, what advice would you give to people who wish to start tennis? 

RN: I only started playing tennis during my sophomore year but I was able to improve significantly in 2 years. So my advice to new players is to consistently practice, stay patient, and most importantly enjoy the process of learning and improving.

MG: What do you think you will miss the most about your tennis career at Law? 

RN: I’ll definitely miss the memories I’ve made the past three years, the close relationships that I’ve had the pleasure of making, and my two amazing coaches that I’ve had during my career at Law.
