2023 Badminton Weekly Highlights


Week of March 13th

Varsity

Another great beginning to the Hinsdale South Varsity Badminton season!  After going through a tough tryout period and a great first two weeks of practice, the Hornet Varsity Badminton team started out with some great wins against Homewood-Flossmoor, Lincoln-Way Central, Oak Forest and Lincoln-Way West.  We then proceed to jump into our annual Dennis Karnstedt varsity badminton tournament and game away with a third place finish against 12 really good badminton teams.  Congratulations to Maggie Chen and Megan Tai for their championships at 1 and 2 singles at this tournament.  Also, congratulations to Eva Maria Louis for her second place finish at 3 singles.  Megan Tai and Ameila Hoch are showing the team what great leadership is and their examples of helping others and the team is really what makes Hornet Badminton great!​

JV1
The JV team started the first week of competition with stellar performances. The team is comprised of returning and new players. In a short time span, each member has grown exponentially. The growth showed immensely on Saturday with a second place finish at the Glenbard East tournament. The hornets were led by Bianca Bares (#4 Singles) Layla Cabrera (#3 Singles) Sophie Petrosius (#2 Singles) and Karen Zaki (#1 Singles), Kelly Lin and Elizabeth Martin (#3 Doubles), Eva Gurklys and Ava Chvosta (#2 Doubles), and Maya Chrzanowska and Isabella Jarosz (#1 Doubles).
