TCCC names Kate Cioffi women's tennis Player of the Week
September 27, 2010
The Endicott women’s
tennis team has won four straight matches, all of them against The
Commonwealth Coast Conference opponents. In this past week,
the Gulls defeated Western New England and Anna Maria thanks in
large part to junior \#Kate Cioffi\#’s (Essex, Vt.)
consistent play at the number one singles and number one doubles
spots. For her efforts the TCCC named her Player of the
Week.
The Gulls squeaked by WNEC 5-4
last Tuesday in a crucial conference match and Cioffi set the tone
at the top of the rankings. In her number one singles match,
Cioffi won 6-2, 6-4 and with teammate \#Emily Annis\# (Hampton,
N.H.) edged their opponents 10-8. The Blue and Green got a
clutch performance at the number five singles spot when the match
was tied and took down the Golden Bears.
Saturday’s match against
Anna Maria did not cause any problems for the streaking Gulls as
the Blue and Green were victorious 9-0. Cioffi continued to
roll with a straight set 6-0, 6-0 win at number one singles and
once again teamed up with Annis to take number one doubles in
convincing fashion, 8-1.
Endicott is now 6-3 (6-1 TCCC)
and will look forward to their home match on Wednesday, September
29 at 3:30 pm against Curry College for the opportunity to run
their win streak up to five.
