The team’s holding midfielder, Tzouganatos recorded eight goals and 15 assists through early November as the Hillers looked to make another deep postseason run. According to coach Tom Skiba, the Boston University-bound senior has “a unique balance of defending, attacking and possession skills. Nina can defend the best attacking midfielders, maintain possession with elite passing abilities and initiate attacks with line-breaking passes or dribbles. She has high-end scanning, communication and positional awareness that allow her to organize our team defense and attack in different situations.”

Move In Style, sponsored by Custom Home Realty’s Laura Wauters, is a weekly Hopkinton Independent feature. Each week during the school year, we will highlight a different Hopkinton High School athlete, selected after consultation with HHS coaches.
