Even with eight new-players on the roster the team posted an average GPA of
3.25 last semester! I have an agreement with the team that if they can post a 3.2 GPA or higher I will do all the racket stringing in the following semester. Guess it is time to limber up the fingers and get ready to string.
Although Whitman is still on break the tennis season is quickly approaching. Once the semester starts Jan 16th we only have a couple weeks of practice before our first weekend of play. On the weekend of Feb 9th we open against UC Santa Cruz (#7 in Nation), PLU (#19 in Nation), UPS and Linfield. Besides playing two nationally ranked teams we also have to contend with two of the better teams in the conference. This should be a great gauge to how we will stack up Nationally and within the conference.
Happy New Year, be safe and have fun!
