Ravens Close Out ITA Regionals Return

The Anderson University women's tennis team closed out the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Regionals as Ella Frantz, Claire Hannaford and Megan Long competed in the regional tournament on Friday and Saturday in St. Louis.

COACH SCOTT GREVE'S COMMENTS

The ladies had a great weekend at the ITA's. It was important for them to witness what we are striving for in building this tennis program. They took some very needed steps in advancing our goals and I appreciate the work they are putting in to make it a reality. Walking away with some wins was very exciting to see.
