For many, playing tennis in Honolulu sounds like a heavenly getaway from life̢۪s challenges. But for the Fresno State Men̢۪s Tennis team, it̢۪s the culminating point of their season.
The No. 37 ranked women̢۪s tennis team recorded its fourth win of the week with a win over Sacramento State on Sunday at the Wathen Tennis Center.
It was back in 2005 when Rudy Siwy was coming from the Czech Republic to look for a new home in the United States, a new school to attend and a college tennis court to play on.
The women̢۪s tennis team was scheduled to open their season Saturday at noon at the Wathen Center, but the weekend rain storms forced the matchup aginst Saint Mary̢۪s to be rescheduled.
Asquirrel at practice isn̢۪t enough to get Fresno State NCAA All-American women̢۪s tennis player Melanie Gloria, right, off her game on Tuesday afternoon at the Spalding G. Wathen Tennis Center.
With the arrival of the fall season, the women̢۪s tennis team has high expectations for the upcoming season and the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) preseason singles and doubles rankings reflect the expectations the Bulldogs have for themselves.
As the Bulldogs take on San Jose State this weekend, freshman pitcher Morgan Melloh takes the mound with her fourth Western Athletic Conference (WAC) Pitcher of the Week honor.
