G-MAC Women's Tennis Championship Bracket
Tournament Program (PDF)
GREENWOOD, Ind. – The spring championship swing around the Great Midwest Athletic Conference continues with the sport of women’s tennis later this week as six teams contend for a new title.
After hosting the G-MAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships this past weekend, the campus of Cedarville University will once again host and welcome Alderson Broaddus, Central State, Davis & Elkins, Kentucky Wesleyan and Ursuline.
All matches will be played outdoors at Cedarville’s Johnson-Murdoch Tennis Complex. As a contingency plan in the event of inclement weather, play would be moved indoors to the Dayton Center Courts.
As the top seed, Cedarville earned one of the two first-round byes along with second-seeded Davis & Elkins and will await the quarterfinal winners.
No. 3 Alderson Broaddus matches up against No. 6 Central State while No. 4 Kentucky Wesleyan squares off against No. 5 Ursuline at 9 a.m. on Friday.
Both G-MAC quarterfinal and semifinal action is scheduled for Friday while the championship final will play out on Saturday morning at 10 a.m.
Based off of seeding, this year’s championship could feature the top two seeds with their roles reversed. Last spring, D&E was the favored No. 1 seed and captured the G-MAC trophy with a 5-3 win over the second-seeded Lady Jackets.
Cedarville (13-8, 7-0 G-MAC) has had four different G-MAC Athletes of the Week this spring, including Courtney Heydt, Maryssa Herbert, Kristen Heydt and Lily Schuler, in order. All four have recorded double-digit win totals in singles with Courtney Heydt going 15-5 in the rotation.
The Lady Jackets put together a perfect record in the G-MAC throughout the regular season and enter the postseason as winners of their last 10 consecutive matches.
Davis & Elkins (11-9, 6-1 G-MAC) enjoyed a near-perfect run through the conference as defending champs, only slipping to Cedarville earlier this month.
The Senators’ Julia Hoehn locked in an 8-8 singles record while arguably playing each team’s toughest opponent, Hali Michael was 12-5 and the pairing was 11-5 in doubles competition.
Mia Fabrega and Jordyn Walker each carved out six singles wins for Alderson Broaddus (5-9, 4-3 G-MAC) as the Battlers played nine matches this spring. Kentucky Wesleyan (4-10, 3-4 G-MAC) recorded three of its four wins in the conference schedule as Danielle Hadler paced the team in singles victories.
Walker also paired with Nicole Martin for seven of her team-leading eight doubles wins.
Anchoring the lineup for Ursuline (1-8, 1-6 G-MAC) is No. 1 starter Roslyn Ng, who went 6-2 overall. She also added three doubles victories to her credit. Central State (0-13, 0-7 G-MAC) received respective singles wins from Nicole Gardner and NyAsia Taylor throughout the course of the spring.
Admission is free for all spectators wishing to attend.
