Olivia Lin and Joshua Chen finished 1st and 2nd at the 2024 New England Junior Tennis Championships.

Olivia won the finals in the girls’ 14 & under division and Joshua finished second in the boys’ 14 & under division. They both received their trophies last Tuesday at the finals of the four-day Junior Sectional event at Amherst College.

Both players came into the tournament as the No.1 seed in their respective divisions. Olivia is now a back-to-back champion after also winning in the 12s last year. Both she and Joshua had an impressive run this year beating out many other highly ranked competitors.

Junior Sectionals is the most prestigious junior tennis tournament in New England and features many of the region’s brightest rising stars. 256 players across four age divisions competed for the ultimate prize. This event was held in Western Massachusetts at Amherst, Smith, and Hampshire Colleges with the final day taking place exclusively at Amherst College.
