One name of a state champion you might not recognize is Becca Porter. As just a sophomore, the girls tennis standout at Center Grove won a doubles title with an undefeated record. Now a senior and four-year varsity player for the Trojans, HSSTM quizzed her mom and her coach to see who knows Becca best.
|

"Becca is a dedicated player that is easy to coach," says Center Grove coach Debby Burton. "She gives 100 percent at all times and is committed to the team. Her skills on the court are outstanding and I am looking forward to what she will accomplish her senior season."
