This week’s Cedar Ridge Red Wolf of the Week is senior tennis player Olivia Ward. During her time at Cedar Ridge, Ward has been a member of a Big 8 Conference Championship team, qualified for regionals twice and qualified for the state championships in doubles. Last week, she won three matches, including over Chapel Hill’s #1 singles player. She also won matches against Orange and Bartlett Yancey. On Tuesday night, Ward continued her strong senior year by winning a match over Northern Durham. Along the way, Ward had to undergo surgery on her right arm less than 18 months ago. Now, she’s recovered and set to end her storied Cedar Ridge career in style. Special thanks to our new Hillsboroughsports.com correspondent, Tim Hackett, for conducting this interview with Ward, who has been very cooperative over the past four years with us in doing interviews.
