Batavia's Potter, Mills set for state appearance in 1st year as tennis tandem

BATAVIA – Batavia girls tennis coach Brad Nelson invited Hannah Potter, then an eighth grader, to the IHSA Girls Tennis State Tournament to give the promising prospect a sneak peek of what her career could hold.

Four years later, what a career it’s been. Potter, a doubles entrant in this year’s state field along with fellow senior Kaitlin Mills, prepares for her final matches as a Bulldog at this year’s state tournament having recently become the program’s all-time wins leader.

Potter broke the wins mark of former Batavia standout Alexa Schofield when she and Mills won their opening round match at the West Aurora Sectional on Friday, giving Potter 110 career wins. The tandem went on to seize the sectional doubles title, and Potter’s wins total stands at 113 entering the start of the three-day state tournament today across the northwest suburbs.
