Shocks capture the #1, #2, #4 and #5 singles and the #1 doubles while finishing 2nd in the #3 singles and the #2 and #3 doubles and with their worst finish a #3 in the #6 singles which were played in Des Moines.
It looks like next springs MVC Team Championships will come down to WSU and Drake. The Shocks play 4 of their 7 Valley dual meets on the road next spring finishing up on April 19 vs Drake in Des Moines. The Valley Tournament Championships are held in Evansville the following weekend.
I regretfully have to admit I have never attended a Shocker tennis match but I think I will make a concerted effort to change that this year.Last edited by 1972Shocker; October 6, 2014, 06:52 PM.Comment

Now that my son is getting into tennis, I'm sure we'll try to make it to a match in the spring.
While watching that Tennis Channel episode I was impressed to see a fair number of spectators.Comment

Lady Shocks finished their spring season in strong fashion down in Dallas. Should be the heavy favorite to win the Valley again next spring.Comment

55th ranked Lady Shocks with a nice 4-3 win at #54 Arkansas to go to 2-0 in the dual-match season on Saturday following a dual-match season opening 5-2 win over Louisiana Tech at the Wichita Country Club on Friday.Comment

The #51 Lady Shockers dropped a close, tough fought match to #27 Pepperdine today in the 1st round of ITA Kick-Off Weekend losing 4-3 with the final outcome coming down to the final few points of 3rd sets in the No. 1 and No. 3 singles matches.
I'm not sure about his but Shocker Jr. Rebecca Pedrazzi may have set a Shocker record by defeating an opponent with the longest name in the No. 2 singles:

The Lady Shocks pick up another nice win over a Top 100 team shutting out #69 Denver in the consolation round of the ITA Kick-Off Weekend. Shocks starting the team season of strong which bodes well for another Valley championship this spring.

Two more wins on the books for the Lady Shocks with a 5-2 win over Colorado and a 5-0 win over UMKC at the Wichita Country Club Indoor Courts.
The Lady Shocks are now 7-1 in the team season.Comment

The Lady Shocks take on KU at the Wichita Country Club on Thursday at 5:00 pm. Free Pizza plus a chance to win a set (I guess that's 2) WSU Men's Basketball tickets (not sure which game).
The 43rd ranked Shockers than travel to Norman on Saturday to take on the #36 ranked Sooners at Noon in what could be a real battle.Comment

I am a little disappointed in the Lady Shocker Tennis team. All this love I have been giving them and not one of them could pick my unknown face out of 10,000 unknown faces at the Indiana State MBB game and hit a souvenir tennis ball to me right on the numbers. Maybe they aren't as good as I thought.
Just kidding Ladies, love ya and I promise to get out to at least one match this year.Comment

Shocks up 2-0 on KU.
They won the doubles point winning 2 of the 3 doubles matches.

Actually, it was 6-1. They only had 5 courts so the #6 singles could not start until one of the 1 through 5 singles matches were complete.Originally posted by RoyalShock View Post
Thanks for the pix. I guess free pizza works.
Just breaks my heart to see the Shocks pound on the Jayhawks though. :glee:Comment
