BLOOMINGTON, Ill. – The defending champion MVC women's tennis champion Illinois State began its spring season on Sunday and it was a strong start for the Redbirds, who picked up 6-1 wins over Eastern Illinois and Illinois-Springfield to start the season 2-0 at the Evergreen Racquet Club in Bloomington.
The win in the matinee gave ISU head coach Maja Kovacek her 100th win at the helm of the Redbird program.
"I'm really happy with the outcome of both matches, especially considering we were a little banged up and weren't able to use everyone on the roster," Kovacek said.
