Grinnell College Athletics

If there was ever an automatic for a Midwest Conference Performer of the Week honor, Sabrina Tang '23 is it this week.
 
Unsurprisingly, the Grinnell College junior was named MWC Tennis Player of the Week after capturing the singles crown at the prestigious ITA Fall Regional Championships over the weekend.
 
Tang, from Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. (Stevens Point Area), became just the second Grinnell player in history to win the crown. After receiving a bye in the round of 128, the sixth seed fired off three wins over the next two days to advance to Sunday's quarterfinals.
 
There, Tang posted a convincing 6-1, 6-1 win over third-seeded Kelsey Dorr of St. Catherine's University and followed that up with a 6-1, 6-1 semifinal win over seventh-seeded Autumn Bruno of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
 
Tang then claimed the title with a victory via default over second-seeded Mary Frances Hose of Carleton College. Grinnell's only other ITA singles champ was Laura Krull in 2012.
