SHIGLEY PERSPECTIVE

 

• "Holy Cross is a vastly improved team from the fall and has one of the best players in the NAIA.  We were without our #1 player, Jeremias Rocco, and then the match got really interesting when we lost the doubles point.  Thankfully, we regrouped in singles and Isaac Steiner clinched the match for us.  Leonardo Sprovieri and Josh Turnquest both played excellent singles for us today."

 

 

SHIGLEY PERSPECTIVE

 

• The Wildcats take the courts again this Saturday, hosting Indiana Tech at 10am and Indiana University East at 3pm.  Senior Wildcats will be recognized and celebrated.
