College Tennis Teams - Boise State University - Team News

Dreams definitely comes true and nothing beats the "true grit" of our American Collegiate players. Today, our players were absolutely phenomenal in defeating France 4-1 in Rennes, France.

It was a miraculous tournament, in which Team USA fought back against team match points in their match with Germany in the semifinals. Today, Tom Fawcett and the women's doubles teams of Brooke Austin and Maegan Manasse also fought off intense adversity and set backs to fight back to win their matches and assure the USA their sixth world championship.

This was an extremely gratifying tournament for Germany had a team match point to defeat our American team when the score was 3-2 for Germany. In doubles in the 3rd set tiebreaker, they were serving for the team match, which we won (thank god).

This had to be one of the longest matches in the history of Master' U.

Match started at 10am and after five matches ended at 9pm. Right when the team returned to the hotel, it was off to the tournament banquet, and to packing for flights home Monday. The tournament was a glorious flash that flew by at the speed of sound. I was so blessed to be able to coach such a wonderful group of dedicated student athletes. We spoke about this tournament as one of the most positive ways to build an exciting future.
