Maccabi Moment
Abramson's most memorable victory
outside of high school was winning
the gold medal in the 1998 Maccabi
Games in Detroit.
"It was nice, with the Maccabi
Games, to incorporate my tennis with
a Jewish community activity,"
Abramson said. "To win it, in that
atmosphere, was a nice experience."
Although Abramson's game is still
evolving, her groundstrokes remain
her strong point. "I usually try to win
my matches by really working my
groundstrokes (from the baseline) and
working the point."
Her backhand is her strongest
weapon. She's also "trying to work on
being more aggressive and trying to
incorporate more of a net game, work
on coming to the net and finishin g
off a point with a volley."
• Brown feels Abramson's serve and
volley "have gotten a lot better, along
with her mental toughness in gener-
al." He'd like her to play with `a little
more aggression and develop a bigger
forehand, so she has a better weapon
off that side."
As a student of tennis, Brown says,
Abramson is "unbelievable. She is one
of my best students by far, as far as
her work ethic. She's one of those stu-
dents you really love to have."
Off the court, Abramson puts as
much effort into her schoolwork as
she does her tennis. "I'm kind of a
perfectionist. When I work on some-
thing for school, I always make sure I
do it right."
Between playing tennis most week-
end mornings and after school, she
doesn't have much free time.
She's done well enough in school
to be accepted at both the University
of Michigan and Michigan State
University, solely on the basis of her
academic achievements. She says it's
"most likely" that she'll attend U-M,
and hopes to play on the tennis team,
although she hasn't contacted the ten-
nis coach yet. ❑
Two For II
Two Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook-
Kingswood seniors, Jamie Royal and
Lindsay Tiemeyer, were among the
All-State honorees at the Division II
tennis tournament in November.
Royal and her partner at No. 1
doubles had 13 victories this year and
reached the state semi-finals.
Tiemeyer played No. 1 singles, fin-
ished with a 20-5 record and reached
the state semi-finals.
