DeSimone, a Sport Management major, also played in the team's top doubles position with junior Kristen Ayers (Acton, Mass.). At Agawam, she served as team captain her senior year.

Barbarisi, a Biology major, was named to the Division 1 All-Scholastic and All-Academic teams at AHS.

DeSimone is the daughter of Robert and Connie DeSimone and Barbarisi is the daughter of Tony and Diane Barbarisi, both of Feeding Hills.
