HILLSBORO, Kan. – The Tabor College men's and women's tennis teams faced a tough challenge on Thursday, March 13, as they took on Sterling College. Despite the beautiful weather, the Bluejays struggled against the talented and well-coached Warriors, ultimately falling in both matches.
"It was a beautiful day, but unfortunately, our scores didn't match the weather," head coach Jeremy Nelson said. "We had a tough day on the court. Sterling has two very good teams. They are talented, well-coached, and were just too much for us today. Now we regroup and get ready for a home match on Saturday against Avila, which should be much more competitive."
