SKILLMAN, NJ – The Intercollegiate Tennis Association released their regional rankings on Thursday afternoon and have named Millsaps Majors Women's Tennis Team 10th overall in the Atlantic South. Additional, the No. 2 Doubles Team of senior Elizabeth Meyer and sophomore Callie Creekmore were ranked 15th among all doubles teams in the Atlantic South.
In what's been an incredible turnaround for the Majors under first year coach Jason Box, the Majors have been nothing short of spectacular this season as they currently sit at 10-4 in one of their best starts in over a decade. Earlier in the season, the Majors went on a huge seven game winning streak including defeating teams such as Rhodes, Birmingham-Southern, and many others along the way. During that run, the Majors outscored opponents 53-10.
Meanwhile, the team of Creekmore and Meyer has been terrific this season at No. 2 doubles, as they have compiled a record of 12-2 in doubles competition including wins over Southwestern, Rhodes, Belhaven, Birmingham Southern, and many more throughout the way. The duo has been key to the Majors taking advantage in doubles competition to set the tone and win many matches.
The newly ranked Majors are back in action tomorrow afternoon as they welcome in Spring College to the Millsaps Tennis Complex. First serve is set for 1:30.
