victory of No. 44 TCU.
Head Coach Sujay Lama was named
the Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year and senior Paula Dinuta was awarded
the Sun Belt Tournament Most Outstanding Player. Lama also became the programs
all-time wins leader in April when the Mean Green wrapped up its undefeated
conference schedule against Middle Tennessee and Troy. Dinuta and Junior Ilona
Serchenko lead the team with 16 dual match wins a piece, and seven of the eight
members of the Mean Green finished with a .500 or better record.
