SIUE Earns Spot in GLVC Tournament
         EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. -- After missing the Great Lakes Valley Tournament since the 2004-2005 season, the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville women's tennis team has earned a spot in this season's eight-team tournament.
         SIUE currently has a 9-11 overall record and a 2-3 mark in the GLVC.
         The Cougars will face Indianapolis, the top seed in the East Division, at 8:30 a.m. Friday at the Cooper Tennis Complex in Springfield, Mo. SIUE is the fourth seed in the West Division.
         "We will be faced with some tough matches," said SIUE women's associate tennis coach Kyler Updyke.
         "We have a young team, and this will be really good experience for them," said Updyke.
         Before heading to the GLVC Tournament, the Cougars will play Washington University Wednesday at 3 p.m.
