Club sports have been quietly carrying on the Villanova tradition of excellence in athletics for years, and it’s about time they get some recognition.
Two Villanova club sports teams are heading to nationals this spring: women’s club ice hockey and men’s and women’s club tennis.
After dominating at the local level and finishing fourth in their sectional tournament, the Club Tennis team (which consists of 50 total players, both men and women) is ready to burst onto the national scene and bring home another national championship for the University.
The USTA Tennis On Campus National Championship, or as it is more colloquially referred to, nationals, boasts a field of 64 teams from colleges and universities across the country.
