ROCK HILL, S.C. - With three victories in both singles and doubles last week, senior Lindsay Gregory has been tabbed AstroTurf South Atlantic Conference Women's Tennis Player of the Week, for matches played between Feb. 2-8, announced by the conference office on Monday.
Gregory shined throughout the week beginning with a doubles win against Columbia College, as she paired up with Mairead Cleary and knocked off Erin Green and Mara Reiss at the No. 1 position, 8-2. In the singles round, Gregory posted a 6-2, 6-2 win over Lydia Royals en route to Anderson's 9-0 blanking of the Fighting Koalas.
The Simpsonville, S.C. native continued her winning ways against Belmont Abbey, as she teamed up with Cleary once again and notched an 8-0 shutout of BAC's Brigid Donohue and Erika Noblett at the No. 2 position. The senior followed the doubles win with a 6-2, 6-1 triumph over Meghan Philp at the N. 5 slot, as the Trojans blanked the Crusaders, 9-0 on Saturday.
On Sunday, the tandem of Gregory and Clearly struck again with an 8-3 victory over Coker's Jennifer Mezei and Sarah Elliott at No. 1. Gregory helped stir a comeback on the Cobras, as her 1-6, 6-1, 6-1 triumph over Ragan Palmer at the No. 4 position, guided Anderson to a 6-3 win in its SAC opener.
For the season, Gregory is 4-0 in both singles and doubles, as she matches the team's overall record of 4-0, which the best start in the program's recorded history. The weekly award is Gregory's first of her career, as Anderson has won the honor for the second consecutive week after sophomore Rebecca Bruning claimed the award last Monday.
Gregory and the rest of the Trojans return to the courts on Thursday when they welcome Columbus State to Max Grubbs Memorial Courts. The first serve is set for 2 p.m.
