Winfield, Kan. – This past weekend, most of the McPherson College tennis team members competed at the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference Individual Championships in Winfield, Kansas.  The teams came away with six first place finishes, despite not being full strength.

Head Coach Justin Stuckey said this about the women's team's performance: "I thought we did extremely well at the tournament, we had everyone on the team playing a flight higher in singles and were still finishing 1st and 2nd in just about every spot. It was great to see Nadine and Zoe win championships and Madison to get her first college wins in conference while finish 4th place at the No. 6 singles spot. I thought the doubles went well as we mixed up our line-up and still made one semifinals, won a championship, and finished second in another."

Coach Stuckey said this about the men: "We won three championships without having three starters so we played really well. Our doubles showed to be very solid which I was very happy to see. Hector played well to make it to finals at No. 1 singles and Hugo played well and won the tournament at No. 2 singles. It was also good to see Robert get his first college victories and win a championship at No. 6 singles."
