Lady Tigers open defense of league title with win

Sunday, August 31, 2003

The Nevada Lady Tiger tennis team, in search of its 11th straight Southwest Conference title, got off to a good start on Friday. Nevada (1-1, 1-0) outclassed Webb City, 8-1, in its 2003 conference debut. "It feels good," said first-year coach Dennis Pendrak, of his maiden victory, "but I have to give all the credit to the girls. And we had a lot of support today from the parents, some old alumni and our guardian angel, Lex Blue, who won championships here." Blue, semi-retired, was a former Nevada High School tennis coach.
