April 18, 2013 by Brittney Johnson

Wednesday, the Wildcats played one last match to end their regular season. Both the men’s and women’s team challenged McMurry, our neighbors down the road, and did not break a sweat as they landed the Warhawks.

In singles, three matches were 6-0 straight and two had the score of 6-1, 6-0.
