SPRING ARBOR, MI - Finally!
After three attempts to get the match in between Spring Arbor University
and Huntington University in women's tennis, there is finally a winner. Spring Arbor came out on top of the match
with a 7-2 win over the Foresters and the final seedings for the Crossroads

#3 doubles respectively. Kristin DeBruyn
and Hope Roelofs at #1, Quincy Banini and Paige Fallu at #2, and Katie Storrer
and Jenna Bart at #3 are the lineups in doubles.
In singles, Jenna Bart (6-2, 6-2), Quincy Banini (6-2, 6-0),
Kelli Cross (6-2, 6-2), and Katie Storrer (6-0, 6-0) all picked up relatively
quick wins at the #3 through #6 singles spots to secure the victory for Spring
Arbor.
Kristin DeBruyn (6-4, 6-3) and Hope Roelofs (7-5, 6-3) both
lost tough decisions at #1 and #2 singles.
