JACKSON- Millsaps Majors women's tennis player Deena Li Kam Wa was recognized by the conference coaches and was named the conference player of the week. 

"Deena is off to a tremendous start this season," coach Jason Box said after the announcement. " We look for her to continue her excellence throughout the season".

Li Kam Wa went 4-0 this past week in victories over rivals Mississippi College and Birmingham Southern. On the singles side, Li Kam Wa dropped only one point between the two matches winning 6-0, 6-1 and 6-0 6-0. 

Deena is building off of a tremendous 21-2 season last year that earned her first-team All-Conference (SCAC). 

Li Kam Wa and the Majors head to the lone star state this weekend for a trio of matches. The Majors tussle with Texas-Tyler on Friday before taking on the LeTourneau Yellowjackets and the East Texas Baptist Tigers on Saturday.
