HIGH SCHOOL AND PERSONAL

Head Coach Robin Stephenson on Luescher: "Sophie is a high-level player with high-level experience as she brings three years of playing at the top on the lineup in the Pac-12 with her. She has big goals for herself and for the program and has the mindset and work ethic to back that up. I have so much belief in where she can take her tennis and what she can accomplish, and I am so grateful that she chose to spend her senior year with us. We have competed against her many times over the past few years, and I have always been so impressed with her competitiveness, her poise and her athleticism among many other things. She impressed us so much during the recruiting process and is an extremely high-level person and high-level thinker. She will make an immediate impact and elevate everyone around her. We are thrilled to welcome her to the Husky family and can't wait to start working closely with her this fall."
