Getting Ready For The Weekend

The Fighting Squirrels of Whitman College (aka the Men's tennis team) is getting ready for a weekend of interesting and intense play. On Sunday we take on University of Montana at 10am at home (Bratton Tennis Center). Its not often that a DI come through town and we are looking forward to playing the Grizz. Hopefully the Squirrels can out scamper and outhustle the powerful Grizzlies! Also on Sunday at 10am we will be playing conference opponent UPS at UPS. 

For those keeping track that is two matches at the same time at different locations! Coach Ann will be working with one group of guys at home and I'll be taking another group to Tacoma. I'm nervous about playing two good teams at the same time. However it will be a great challenge for our team and everyone will get to play meaningful matches.

Last weekend we had a similiar split squad stragety against George Fox and Pacific. The Squirrels really stepped up to the plate defeating both George Fox and Pacific 9-0. Click the links below for match scores.
