The expectations for Bryn Loomis Adams were prodigious long before she made her mark as a Norwich High School varsity athlete.
Her grandfather, John Stewart, established himself in the 1950s as one of the greatest athletes of his generation. Those Stewart bloodlines ran strong in ensuing generations with standout athlete after standout athlete setting standards for excellence in their sport of choice.
So, when Bryn first strode onto the varsity tennis court as a middle school student, nothing less was expected.
Did Bryn deliver on that athletics promise?
She sure did.
