Former Fenwick girls basketball star Meredith Boardman was featured in an ABC7 Chicago news report earlier this month. The report chronicled Boardman’s own comeback from an ACL injury in comparison to the same injury suffered by Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose.

Boardman was featured in Heard in the Hallways last season after deciding to play for Yale this fall. She was one of 31 students recently honored by Fenwick as a future college athlete. Boardman was named to the Chicago Sun-Times All-Area team after last season.
