SOUTH SIOUX CITY, Neb. – Morningside University fought past College of Saint Mary 7-0 on Monday in a Great Plains Athletic Conference tennis dual at the First Serve Tennis Center indoor facility.

"Morningside competed well tonight, and their players showed grit and talent in key moments,'' CSM Coach Mike Johnson said. "That said, I remain proud of how our team handled the adversity, especially in an environment that, frankly, lacked the leadership and sportsmanship we hope to see at the collegiate level. We'll use it as a teaching moment and stay committed to representing our school with integrity, both on and off the court.''
