IIAC Champs Edge Kohawks

Defending Iowa Conference Champion, Luther College, edged the Coe College Women's Tennis team Sunday afternoon 5-4, on the indoor courts of Clark Racquet Center. In a match that came down to the #5 singles flight, our young Kohawks grew up a lot as they tangled with the experienced, nationally ranked Norse. Coe won four of the five closely contested matches, and I saw enough from a couple more lineup spots to give me more than a glimmer of hope that, with continued improvement in our competitive skills, we could have a chance to defeat IIAC favorites, Luther and Wartburg, if we get the opportunity.
