Tennis event ends college sports year
The college sports year came to an official end on Sunday. The last team in action happened to be the women's doubles team from Pomona-Pitzer which was wrapping up play at the Division III national tournament in Georgia.
The top-seeded duo of junior Siobhan Finicane and Olivia Muesse of
won their semifinal but dropped the championship match later in the day.
The duo started with a semifinal win over Kristin Cobb and Marta Drane of
Denison in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3 but ended with a loss to the University of Chicago duo of Chrissy Hu and Kendra Higgins 6-1, 6-3.
The Sagehens were defeated by Emory (Ga.) in the team quarterfinal
earlier in the week.
Later in the week we'll go back and look at some of the moments and the athletes that made the 2008-2009 school year an unforgetable one.
