Double Dutch

Identical twins Danielle (left) and Jennifer Murray '09 catch some air at a recent varsity tennis practice. The competitive duo, both of whom have been ranked No.1 among 18-and-under singles players (and as the No. 1 doubles team) in British Columbia, have been jumping rope competitively for 11 years. Double-dutch and pairs freestyle Canadian national champions, they have temporarily set down their ropes to focus on tennis. "We definitely miss it, but tennis is the reason we came to Dartmouth, so that's the priority now," says Danielle. In their free time the twins hope to lead clinics on jumping rope at local schools and perhaps teach a Miniversity class to the Dartmouth community. photograph by Jennifer Hiuck Valley News
