Allie Hanigan caps her high school tennis career. (John Fisken photos)
Graceful and gritty.
That’s Allie Hanigan, who capped a standout run as a Coupeville High School athlete with a fourth-place finish at the district tennis tourney.
After she and her family moved to The Rock from Kelso, Hanigan made an immediate impact for the Wolves as both a volleyball player — flying high above the net to deliver knee-buckling spikes — and as a netter.
She always made it look easy, yet never took the easy way out, always fighting to the last point regardless of the sport or the competition.
As she and her tennis teammates prepare for their final moments together at an awards shindig Thursday, we offer up this compilation of photos taken by John Fisken as Hanigan fought through her final match as a high school player.
Well done, Miss Hanigan. A class act to the end.
