Later this week, the tennis courts at the Tualatin Hills Tennis Center will be buzzing with action as the OSAA tennis state championships take place in Beaverton.

As a result, athletes are being forced to decide between competing for a tennis state championship or taking exams that could alter their educational trajectories.
