Prep, Personal: Played her high school tennis at Hopewell High School under head coach Christine Keitt ... Daughter of Russell Nails ... Majoring in biology ... Born on March 15, 1993 ... Chose WPU because of the school's history as a small liberal arts college which has allowed her to develop close relationships with all faculty/staff that she wouldn't find at a large university ... She also believes Division III athletics develops valuable life skills that will stay with her long after she stops playing tennis competitively ... Plans to attend graduate school for genetic counseling
