Coach's Corner

"It was a very nice way to close the season. Anytime you can put 11 girls out on the court in a single match and have everyone contribute to the win, that is always going to be a great day. I want to thank our seniors, Madisen Harvey and Maddie Sorebo, for their contributions over the last four years. It has been a real rollercoaster, especially the last two seasons, but they stuck it out and I appreciate that. Moving forward, I am hoping the returning players can continue to improve as playing in this conference is never easy. We have a lot of firepower coming back next year and I'm very excited to see what the future holds for Ursinus College Women's Tennis."
