WAVERLY, Iowa – The Coe College women's tennis team capped off a strong fall at the American Rivers Conference Individual Championships over the weekend. The performances were highlighted by senior Sophia Fain, who won her third consecutive A-Singles championship after entering the tournament as the top overall seed. Fain earned a bye in the first round and started with a 4-1, 4-0 win in the round of 16 before coming from behind for a 4-5, 4-1, 10-4 decision in the quarterfinals. The Waterloo native proceeded to beat a pair of teammates in the semifinals and finals, taking down Alice Tysoe in the semis, 4-2, 4-1, and Aisha Gurung, 4-2, 4-5, 10-6, in the championship. Tysoe, Gurung and Fain were joined in the semifinal round by fellow teammate Addison Leasure, confirming the Kohawks' dominant performance in the top flight. Bailey Engels was Coe's standout performer in the remaining singles flights, reaching the Flight E semifinals and eventually claiming the third-place match with a 5-4, 4-0 victory. In doubles, Coe was led by Alli Hagness and Alice Tysoe in the top flight, reaching the semifinal round before falling to eventual champions Molly Jex & Salalee Seejong.
