COACH SHIGLEY SAYS…

• “It was another dominating performance by the girls tennis team today. We knew that the number one players from Spring Arbor was a tough competitor but Alex Mella came back to win a close match. We are really proud of how Alex battled even though she felt under the weather with a chest cold. It was another good week for IWU tennis as both teams remain undefeated.”
