SAN MARCOS, Texas – The Sun Belt Conference announced Wednesday that league coaches named Texas State senior tennis player Hana Kvapilova the Sun Belt Newcomer of the Year and a First-Team All-Conference selection.
Kvapilova was the lone Sun Belt No 1 singles player to have an undefeated record in conference matches with a 6-0 record. She had wins against every school except Louisiana in the West Division during the regular season, and she clinched Texas State's first-round victory in the Sun Belt Championship with her victory against Appalachian State.
Her regular-season wins came against Sun Belt regular-season champion UT Arlington, two different ULM players, and Arkansas State twice.
