Netwomen Volley With Big Ten Foes

"I got to know a lot of people on this trip," said Rosemary She, a freshman who is one of the top players on the team. "[Road trips] are always fun."

The fun ended for She when she pulled her hamstring in her second consolation match of the second singles flight against Natalie Adsnar from Illinois. She was forced to default her second match after losing her first match to Purdue's Alyssa Kohl, 6-4, 6-2, and she became the fourth player on the Crimson's injury list.

"I pulled a quadricep muscle so I didn't play that well," She said. "The strength in my game is my speed. Since I pulled my muscle I couldn't use that part of my game that well."

Who knew tennis was such a dangerous sport?

Roiter is back practicing after pulling her hamstring in the beginning of the season.

"I'm hitting this week," Roiter said. "This week I hope to come back in full force."

If the Crimson plays with the same spirit and intensity it showed the last two days of the tournament, it well definitely be a force at the Rolex Invitational Tournament, November 3-6. Individual players qualify for the tournament based on the strength of the team, the individual's record, and the individual's past performance.

Hopefully for the Crimson, it can heal its wounds by then.
