ABILENE, TEXAS – Fueled on by five straight-set women's singles victories and three of the same variety for the men's team, the McMurry University tennis teams left their Seidel-Swagerty Tennis Center with a disposition as sunny as the Feb. 4, 2023, weather.
 
Head coach Chris Breaux's War Hawks cruised past visiting Texas Lutheran University 9-0 on the women's side and 7-2 on the men's side. Junior Bridgette Fly (Watauga, Texas), freshman Jenna Vincent (San Angelo, Texas), sophomore Mackenzie Carroll (Groesbeck, Texas), junior Hannah DeFriend (Groesbeck, Texas), and senior Emily Nuttall (Keller, Texas) turned in the two-set sweeps for the women.
