UMAC Women's Tennis All-Conference Awards Announced: St. Scholastica cleans house
ST. PAUL -- After a dominating performance throughout the regular season and at Friday and Saturday’s Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) Postseason Tournament, the College of St. Scholastica led all schools with six all-conference awards. The Saints claimed the UMAC regular season title for the 15th consecutive year after going a perfect 10-0 in league play while taking all nine flights at the tournament.
St. Scholastica’s Callee Conda was named the UMAC Player of the Year after the senior went 9-0 at the No. 1 singles spot in conference contests. Conda was joined on the all-conference team by fellow Saints Ali Bernst, Hillary Bungarden, Milly CheLeon, Amanda Hiatt and Danni Sonnenfeld. All six brought home at least one championship medal from the UMAC Tournament. Saints head coach Wells Patten was also voted as the league’s coach of the year.
Northwestern College had two all-conference award winners, while Bethany Lutheran College, Martin Luther College, North Central University and the University of Minnesota Morris each had one recipient.
