GLEGHORN PERSPECTIVE

 

• "The women took care of business today," said James Gleghorn, Head Tennis Coach. "There were no let-ups along the way. It is the way you want to draw up the opening day! I am really proud of the way they came together and dominated both matches. They did a great job of supporting each other and showing Christ's love after the matches to the other team. I am glad to have France back after her knee surgery. It has been a long 9 months for her, and she came out today and showed she is ready to play!"

LOOKING FORWARD

 

• The Wildcats will travel to Marion on Thursday at 3:00 p.m.
