Due to limited court availability two singles matches were left unfinished once Coe clinched the team victory.

The Warhawks, at 17-7, are one win away from tying the school record for dual meet wins in a season.  UW-W went 18-7 in 1983-84 under the guidance of  coach Connie O'Niell.

This was the third consecutive match the Warhawks have played against an opponent they have already faced this season.  The Kohawks topped UW-W 6-3 on March 1 in a match played in Cedar Rapids, IA.

The Warhawks host Carthage College and Olivet Nazarene on April 19 at the Ron Wangerin Tennis Courts in Whitewater.  The Warhawks will face the Red Men at 9:00 am and the Tigers at 3:00 pm.
