Springtime in Paris was a great way to end the 2013 Women's Weekday League. Over 170 ladies and pros attended the celebration at Canyon Gate Country Club! Kelley Morgan from When Pigs Fly Events and her USTA crew, Mary Maragos, Maureen Caruso, Janay Oakland and the USTA interns transformed Canyon Gate's ballroom into another place and time. As soon as you arrived at the event you were whisked along the streets of Paris to a small cafe where you could take pictures with Andre Agassi's US Open Trophy and the Brian Brothers 2012 Olympic gold medal. As you continued into the reception area you could bid on numerous silent auction items at the Paris Flea Market that were donated by many local businesses. For the brave of hear, you could learn the fate of your future from the fortune teller. After everyone had a chance to mix and mingle, the doors opened to the grand ballroom where tables were set with beautiful bouquets of flower, vintage umbrellas and a small gift bag personally made by Kelley. Canyon Gate provided a delicious buffet lunch which was followed by a fashion show courtesy of Janice Wilson and Eccoci in Boca Park. Eccoci's latest fashions were modeled by different ladies on the weekday tennis teams. It was great to see the ladies strutting their stuff. It was definitely an event to be remembered. The ladies (and gents) were all looking fantastic! Check out the photo album above of the day's festivities |

LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) ? Fresh from a conference tournament title and NCAA first-round win, UNLV women’s tennis head coach Kevin Cory has been named the Mountain Region Head Coach of the Year, the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) announced Wednesday. Cory, who is in his 14th year at the school, earned his third such honor after also winning it 2002 and 2011. He is also a two-time MW Coach of the Year honoree (2000 and 2002). A native of California and former player at the University of Oregon, Cory is the winningest coach in Mountain West history with a record of 79-19 in the regular season and 26-10 in the postseason tournament. That last record includes a 3-0 mark at last month’s MW Tournament held in Colorado Springs, Colo., where he brought back his seventh career conference trophy (four tournament and three regular season). After upsetting top-seeded San Diego State in the MW final, UNLV advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the third time ever with an upset of No. 27 Tulsa last weekend that got the squad to the 20-win mark (20-8) for the fourth time in the last five years. The Lady Rebels also produced the MW Player of the Year in the form of Aleksandra Josifoska and will be sending two players to next week’s NCAA Singles Tournament for the first time in program history (Josifoska and Lucia Batta). Cory will now be considered for the national ITA award along with the winners from the other seven regions. |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 16, 2013 The 2012-13 Capital One Academic All-District ® Men’s At-Large Teams, selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America, have been released to recognize the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and in the classroom. Capital One has been the entitlement rights holder to CoSIDA’s Academic All-America teams programs since 2011. The Academic All-District ® teams include the student-athletes listed on the following pages and are divided into eight geographic districts across the United States and Canada. This is the second year of the expanded Academic All-America® program as CoSIDA moved from recognizing a University Division (Division I) and a College Division (all non Division I) and has doubled the number of scholar-athletes honored. The expanded teams include NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II and NCAA Division III participants, while the College Division team combines NAIA, Canadian and two-year schools. The Capital One Division II and III Academic All-America® program is being financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures, to assist CoSIDA with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2012-13 DII and DIII Academic All-America® teams program. First-team Academic All-District ® honorees advance to the Capital One Academic All-America® Team ballot, where first-, second- and third-team All-America honorees will be selected later this month.
