Women’s Tennis Continues Road Swing
Even though the SIUE women’s tennis team lost three matches over the weekend, coach Bill Logan still had a lot of positives to look at. “It was a tough couple of matches,” said Logan. “We had tough competition.”
The Cougars played three Great Lakes Valley Conference matches in two days. SIUE lost to Bellarmine 6-3 on Friday with No. 3 singles Allison Coats (Belleville), No. 4 singles Lisa Warner (Arlington Heights), and No. 5 singles Celia Montes (Chicago) all picking up wins.
On Saturday, the Cougars fell to Indianapolis 5-0. “Indianapolis is probably the toughest team in the conference,” said Logan. SIUE then traveled to Northern Kentucky were they fell to the Norse 8-1.
“The bright side to that match was my No. 1 player won,” said Logan. Chrissy Yingst (Belleville) defeated NKU’s Laura Lipsinger, 3-6, 6-4, 10-4 for SIUE’s only point. The Cougars will be back on the road on Friday at St. Joseph’s at 3 p.m.. SIUE travels to Lewis on Saturday for a match at 9 a.m.
