SAINT PETER, Minn. – The Gustavus women’s tennis team took a 7-2 win over Luther on Saturday afternoon. The team is now 2-0 overall.
“Little bit of a rougher start right away in doubles after our huge win last night,” said Assistant Coach Heidi Carlson, “But after doubles we brought it in singles big time. Luther is a great team and has a strong depth down the line just as we do. The team grinded today and ended smooth in singles. We’ll stay hot for our next matches if we keep practicing hard.”
