Kerr Vance Academy has named alumna Cameron Ford Breedlove coach of its varsity girls tennis team.

Breedlove played on the KVA tennis team her seventh through twelfth-grade years and said she was “excited to be back as the coach.” Upon graduating KVA, Breedlove attended William Peace University in Raleigh.

Breedlove said former classmate George Hoyle, Jr., who now serves as athletic director for KVA, knew of her love for tennis and reached out when the coaching position became available.

Losing five seniors to graduation last year, Breedlove will have her work cut out for her coaching a younger team limited in practice ability due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With four girls returning, Breedlove hopes to recruit more players for the upcoming season.

“The team is younger; however, these are very talented girls with great skills who have been playing for a while,” Breedlove said.
