Tough Draw for Women's Tennis in Opener
The Muhlenberg women's tennis team opened its spring season with one of the toughest matches on its schedule.
Despite getting shut out by Johns Hopkins, the 16-time defending Centennial Conference champion and the eighth-ranked team in Division III, the Mules took away some positives.
The top two players in the lineup, sophomore Kety Gaidamashvili and senior Sophia Framm (pictured above), both played very competitively in singles, forcing several long games.
