NWC: Boeschen named women’s tennis ‘Coach of the Year’ in leading Watauga to team title

By David Rogers. BOONE, N.C. — In her first year as head coach of the Watauga High School women’s tennis team, Phoebe Boeschen faced numerous challenges. Early on, she lost her previous No. 1 singles player but even before that many thought it would be a rebuilding year for the Pioneers.

Instead, the young Pioneers finished the 2023 campaign 14-2 overall, 9-1 in Northwestern Conference play, the only league loss coming in a 4-5 decision at Ashe County at the end of the regular season — and a team the Pioneers had defeated 7-2 a month earlier, at home.

For her work leading the Pioneers in her maiden season, Boeschen was named “Coach of the Year” by the Northwestern Conference, according to a league report issued on Nov. 18.
