FARMINGTON, UTAH – The University of Idaho Women's Tennis team has been picked to finish third in the Big Sky Conference Preseason Coaches poll announced Wednesday, Jan. 8th.
The five-time conference champions garnered 79 points in the poll just behind Weber State with 86 and the preseason favorite, Northern Arizona with 100 and 10 first place votes.
Last season the Vandals finished 13-8 on the season and 8-2 in conference play and came up just short of the Big Sky title, falling to Northern Arizona 0-4 in the title match.
This season Idaho returns four members from last year's team including juniors Marta Magalhaes and Laura Sparato who both earned Big Sky All-Conference honors a year ago.
