From Coach Tim Nelson

Whitewater celebrated senior night with a 5-2 victory on Sept. 17 over Edgerton. The win puts the Whippets at 14-7 on the year.

Overall, I was pleased with our effort. Our footwork was a little better this evening and we didn’t try and overdo things. Cassidy Laue played well this evening. She was down most of the first set but at 4-5 in the first set, she really started picking her game up and won the next three to take the first set and then kept it going in the second. Tessa and Josie at 3 and 4 singles were steady throughout the evening. Our 1 and 2 doubles teams were both pretty solid. They each had a game or two when they were a little flat, but were able to turn things around right away so that the matches were never in doubt.

We finish up the conference season at McFarland on Thursday evening.
