CINCINNATI, Ohio – The Miami University tennis team wrapped up a successful weekend at the Pam Whitehead Invitational, capturing 11 victories, six coming via singles competition.
"It was great to kick off the season with our first tournament," said head coach Ricardo Rosas. "We competed well across the board, and it was especially encouraging to see different doubles combinations working together. With a total of nine doubles and 18 singles matches played, it was a great opportunity to see the team in action and begin preparing for the season ahead. I was really pleased with how our new players embraced the competition, and combined with our upperclassmen, we're shaping up to be a highly competitive group this year."
