Simmons sophomore Margaret Teague (Manchester, N.H.) was named the Great Northeast Athletic Conference Tennis Player of the Week, the GNAC announced on Monday. After two rainout matches last week, the Sharks hosted NESCAC powerhouse Wesleyan University (Conn.) on Saturday at The Winsor School courts.
Teague played in the #1 Singles spot, defeating the Cardinals' Sarah Miller 6-3, 4-6, 12-10. Teague partnered with fellow Shark Allison Bodek at #1 Doubles for an 8-4 win.
Coach Rauseo said, "Margaret had a huge day for Simmons. She played an grueling 2.5 hour singles match and saved a match point in the biggest win of her collegiate career."
