At the RC

So....week III of the Women's Tennis season is underway, and Week I of the Men's Fall has begun!

Recap: Coach Kris' Team boosted her career W/L mark to an unblemished 2-0 with resounding victories over Lake Forest College(8-1) & Edgewood College(9-0). LFC finished 2nd in the Midwest Conference in 2013 and Edgewood, like Coe, was an NCAA participant in May of 2014.

Coe welcomed Haley Resnick and Jamie White to their first varsity competitions. All in all, Coe was able to get matches for all nine players who traveled. This Saturday marks the opening of the Fall home match slate, with a 9am Iowa Conference opponent in Buena Vista. At 2pm, the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh arrives at the Clark Racquet Center. Though the Fall is typically dedicated to Iowa Conference play the out of conference opponents are wonderful playing opportunities for the entire 14 person squad.

The Kohawk Men kicked off their short September season Tuesday, with three hours of practice and conditioning. Brady Anderson, Josh Schlafer and Chris Schirm took part in their first practices as Kohawks. The Men will play in two individual tournaments this Fall, the first of which is Friday/Saturday 9/19-20 here in Cedar Rapids as the Iowa Conference will determine its Individual Champions in five different flights of play. The following weekend(9/26-28) the top players will journey to St Peter, Minnesota for competition in the ITA Regional. The ITA Regional, one of nine across the country, is the onset of the road to the Fall Nationals, hosted by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association.
