The Warhawks added another win to their season record April 15 with a 9-0 dominant win over Illinois Wesleyan on the Wangerin Courts.  The win is UW-W's fifth in a row, beginning with a 6-3 win against Coe College April 4, and the eighteenth this season.  Every singles and doubles match was taken by the Warhawks, the eighth time this season that UW-W has swept their opponent.
