Scots Begin Spring Swing with 9-0 Loss To College of St. Benedict

ORLANDO, Fla. - The women's tennis team fell to the College of St. Benedict 9-0 Monday (Feb. 26).
Head coach Jim Fox was optimistic about his team's outlook for the 2006 season, noting that Monday's match was the first time his team has played outdoors this season.

"The match scores are not truly indicative of the way the girls played," said Fox. "The indoor training has us prepared, but now it's just working out some of the kinks."
