And the winner is...

The women's tennis team invited the golf team to a pumpkin carving contest. A third judge was brought in to help decide the winner. It was determined we have two very creative and talented teams! Christine and Jade from tennis paired with Amy from golf to create the winning pumpkin. I think the judges were swayed by the pumpkin gut hair and lipstick.

Tennis Team Paints the Rock

Rockin' in Nashville

After BG rolled on the tennis court they rocked at the Wild Horse Saloon with Murray State. Who knew Sam and Katia could line dance so well?

Outdoor Practice

The great fall weather is the allowing the team to practice outside before heading to the outdoor tournament in Nashville, TN. There, BG will face Belmont, Murray State, and UTC.

Rumor has it Maddy can't wait to try out her vocals at the Grand Ole Opry!

All Smiles

After a slow warm-up on day two, the falcons left the Cincy tourney all smiles on day three!

Impressive Singles Play

BGSU women are 18-5 in singles play so far in Cincy! Very impressive! Three good wins over Toledo is even more impressive~ GO FALCONS!

Falcons Prepare for Cincy tourney

The ladies are preparing for the Cincy tourney. More challenge matches are being played and different doubles combos are being experimented with. The girls will meet UC and Xavier again as well as Bradley, Dayton, West Virginia and MAC opponents Toledo and Ball State.

Team Practices Inside

The girls went inside at the Perrysburg Tennis Center to get ready for the Cincy tourney. The girls had no problem adjusting to the indoor courts. Motivational quotes chosen by the players were shared.

INVITE SHOWS STRENGTH OF TEAM

Wow, what an exciting weekend! The BG Invite showed nine other teams what we are made of this year! Every player on the team added to the excitment. Christine gave Akron's #1 player a tough second set in the finals of the first flight. With open blisters on her hands and feet Sam won two out of her three extremely long three setters to finish 2nd in her flight.

Freshman Maddy proved she is not a little fish in a big pond while the even keeled Jade Johnson showed some fist pumping action to win her flight. Last but not least, Katie did not pull a Serena after a disappointing referee call that ended her chance for third place!

Katia, Jessica, and Mary proved their hard work is paying off. While everyone displayed their strengths we also saw what we needed to work on to be at the top! Look out MAC!

Back to Work

The women's tennis is back in action! Practices and conditioning have started. The first match is the BG Invite September 19-20th. The girls are welcoming three new freshman. More to come.
