The Thundering Herd Women’s Tennis Team went on a short road trip to Charleston over the weekend to participate in the fall event Thunder in the Mountains.
Marshall brought the thunder on the first day, winning 12 matches. The Herd tallied six singles and six doubles wins. Emma Vanderheyden and her partner Sophia Hurrion had an untarnished record of 3-0.
“Everyone was excited to get the season started,” said Herd tennis head coach John Mercer said. “It’s great to be close to home in Charleston, and our team really appreciates their hospitality.”
The doubles teams proved to be a challenge for the Herd’s opponents from Radford and Cleveland State.
