Hello out there!
I'm trying to get a post out weekly and this past week we had a week of recovery, learning and training after the WC Fall Invite. The team is diligently working on schoolwork to get ahead for the coming weekend and have kept up their fitness and tennis with some really solid practices.
We look to up the intensity this week as we get ready to host the Fall Oracle ITA Regional this Fri, Sat, and Sun. It is a phenomenal event with all of our conference teams bringing singles and doubles players. Winners are automatically all-American and get into Fall Small College Nationals!
In terms of running the tournament, coaching and keeping everything going, it can be hard to update results, but I will do my best via twitter @whitwomentennis and on the WC Website on our schedule page.
The schedule (if dry) is to play on all 10 Whitman courts outside and inside
Friday 9am until done - 2 singles rounds followed by 2 doubles rounds
Saturday same as Friday
Sunday - singles main and consolation semis and finals, doubles final.
Looking forward to some great tennis!
John

Coaching Philosophy
To me, being a college student is about opportunity and growth. As a coach, I consider myself lucky to spend 4 years providing opportunity while nurturing growth. We use common goals, hard work, open communication, respect and accountability as means to building meaningful relationships and improving each player’s skill set on and off the court. This means embodying championship virtues to inspire athletic, academic and personal growth that not only happens while you are at Whitman, but becomes a part of who you are throughout life.
