Tennis players honored by GLIAC

Coming off a runner-up finish at GLIAC Tournament last weekend, three players on the Grand Valley State University women’s tennis team have been acknowledged as All-GLIAC performers.

Led by senior Tara Hayes, who earned All-GLIAC first team honors, the Lakers saw Hayes, freshman Leah Dancz and sophomore Niki Shipman honored.

The trio helped GVSU to a 13-3 overall record, with a 9-2 mark in the GLIAC. Their regular season has finished, but the team will return to action in the spring for the national tournament.
