Women’s Tennis Team Dominates “Thunder in The Mountains” Tournament

The Marshall University women’s tennis team struck lighting this past weekend at the “Thunder in The Mountains” tournament.

On the first day of competition, The Herd was victorious in singles action over Villanova from Madi Ballow, Emma Vanderheyden, Sophia Hurrion, Jutte Van Hansewyck, Rieke Gillar, Liz Stefancic and Kylie Fisher.

Marshall also struck up a pair of doubles victories over two different Saint Francis doubles teams by Hurrion and Kara Joseph.

Kara Joseph, junior, said, “I think this past weekend, I learned a lot. It was a lot of hard work, and I think I played pretty well considering this is my first tournament and my first couple matches in a couple years because of COVID-19.
