One used heavy groundstrokes to finish points. The other, the one across the net from the heavy hitter, played with a heavy heart that might have weighed slightly less than an anvil. Lake Zurich freshman Katrine Boianov, seeded second, and Rolling Meadows senior Hanna Haber, seeded fifth, battled for the singles championship at Saturday’s Class 2A Fremd girls tennis sectional in Palatine. The 5-foot-7 Boianov — composed, shrewd and, at opportune times, powerful — constructed points effectively throughout a businesslike 6-2, 6-1 victory and improved her record to 24-7.
