Hi everyone,
It's a busy time for tennis teams and we're no different, as the ladies finish their classes for our two week Spring Break, we immediately hit the courts out by Ankeny today at 2pm, followed by a series of matches the next three days in Portland. Dave Holden has written up a preview: http://www.whitman.edu/whitman/index.cfm?objectid=9CEB63E1-DAAD-542B-B4990D6474B648D9
Then, after some well deserved time off, we reconvene our break in Southern California in a week for some non-conference DIII matches with Salisbury, Chapman (#13 in nation), Redlands (#29 in nation) and Claremont (#28 in nation).
This week Alyssa was honored as the NWC student athlete of the week for women's tennis, which you can read about at http://www.whitman.edu/whitman/index.cfm?objectid=985B7D3C-B8C3-57FE-0D0459B59C70458E Congrats Show Pony!
Hope to see you at some matches!

Coaching Philosophy
To me, being a college student is about opportunity and growth. As a coach, I consider myself lucky to spend 4 years providing opportunity while nurturing growth. We use common goals, hard work, open communication, respect and accountability as means to building meaningful relationships and improving each player’s skill set on and off the court. This means embodying championship virtues to inspire athletic, academic and personal growth that not only happens while you are at Whitman, but becomes a part of who you are throughout life.
