<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> On Saturday
morning, all five of us met coach at the golf course at 8:30 in the morning to
start our trip to The Summit League Championships! We had a three-hour drive ahead of us since
the closest airport with Southwest Airlines was the St. Louis International Airport. Many of us slept on our way and we stopped
just before the airport to get Panera for lunch. By now, we were informed that our flight was
delayed 45 minutes. We parked the van
and took a shuttle to the airport. Our
team got all our bags checked and made our way through security. As I walked through the metal detector, the
alarm sounded and I was randomly selected for a search. My last collegiate tournament ever and it was
the first time I had ever been searched!
Finally, our plane arrived and once we landed in San Francisco we picked
up our minivan to make the two-hour drive to Seaside, California. Along the way we got dinner at Chili’s, and
once we arrived at the Holiday Inn we moved to our rooms for the night.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Our
practice round on Sunday wasn’t until 12:30 p.m., so we all slept in and got
some breakfast at the hotel. We left the
hotel around 11 a.m. and went to the Bayonet Golf Course. Once there, we all headed to the range to get
some practice in before our tee time.
Right before we teed-off, our coach came and asked us what we wanted for
lunch. During the practice round, we
played as a five-some and most of our parents came out to watch. The practice round took a little over five
hours, and once we were done we rushed back to the hotel to shower and change
before the banquet. The banquet started
at 7 p.m. and we were served a great meal and awards were given. There was a coach’s meeting after the
banquet, so our coach let me take the team back to the hotel in the
minivan. On our way back to the hotel, a
few of the girls wanted desert so we stopped at a McDonald's and got ice cream
sundaes and cookies! Later that night,
coach called us all together in a room to have a team meeting and then we went
to bed.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Our team
was ranked seventh, so we were in the first tee time with the eighth and ninth
ranked teams. The first tee time was at
8 a.m. and we usually get to the golf course an hour early, so we left the
hotel at 6:45 a.m. This meant that we
got up at 6:00 that morning. During the
first round of the championships, we were held closely to a four hour and
thirty-eight minute round. This was the
fastest round we’d played all season, and we were quite happy with that pace. Since we were in tee times, my teammates in
front of each other would stay and watch our entire team finish. Once everyone was finished and ate their
lunch, we practiced to try and improve on our problems from that day. We finally left the golf course around
3pm. Most of us had our parents in town
so we were given the afternoon off to do as we wished. Most of us did some kind of shopping or
touristy things, since there is no shopping in Macomb. Since we had been in Monterey for spring
break this year, no one really went to see Pebble Beach because we had done
that as a team in March. Once everyone
was back at the hotel, we had another team meeting to discuss our rounds and
went to bed.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Once again
my team was in the first group of the day, so our morning was much like
Monday’s. We left the hotel at 6:45 a.m.
and once again we finished our second round in four hours and thirty-eight
minutes. Once we were done, our team
practiced and once again we left the golf course around 3 p.m. A lot of us showered and changed and went
down to cannery row to walk the shops and see the seals on the beach. I ended up getting dinner with my parents and
went to see the Furious 7 movie, which was amazing! My parents dropped me back off at the hotel
and I ended up packing since we were leaving for San Francisco after our round
tomorrow.</span></span></div>

the final round of the tournament and once again my team was in the first round
of tee times. We had the same routine as
the previous two days in the morning.
However, this was the final collegiate round ever for one of my
teammates—Jess Knepp—and I. This round
was by far my best round of the tournament and on hole 17 I asked my coach to
walk with me while I played the last hole of my college year. She walked with me to keep me from getting
emotional and I ended up birding my last hole.
After my birdie, I started to tear up but held it together until I came
off the 18<sup>th</sup> green and saw my parents, Jess’ parents, and Jess
crying. Jess and I had played together
for four years, we were roommates, and we had both just finished our last
tournament ever of our college career! It was such a bittersweet feeling. After all the pictures and farewells to our
parents, we got in our van and headed up to San Francisco. Our flight wasn’t until tomorrow, so on our
way up we decided to stop at the Ghirardelli factory outlet store and we looked
into getting tickets to a Giants game.
We ended up getting standing room tickets to a San Francisco Giants game
versus the Los Angeles Dodgers. None of
us were Giants or Dodgers fans, but we all loved baseball! During the game, we noticed two women who
looked like LPGA players and we were right!
Our team met Katherine Kirk and Amelia Lewis who were playing at the
LPGA event, Swinging Skirts, the next day.
We stayed at the game until after the fifth inning and then left to head
to our hotel because we had an early morning flight.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Today was
the day that we had to head back to Macomb.
Our flight left at 6:15 a.m., but we were a half hour away from the
airport. We left our hotel at 3:30 in
the morning, returned our rental car, and got to the airport around 4:15 a.m. Once we got through security, we all got
bagels at the only place that was open in the airport. Our flight was on time and we left for our
layover in Dallas. We landed in Dallas
around noon and our next flight wasn’t until 1:30 p.m., which ended up getting
delayed until about 2:15 p.m. Once we
were in the air, our flight had no issues and we landed in St. Louis around 4 p.m. There was a ton of traffic jams around the
airport so we ended up taking back roads back to Macomb. Along the way, we stopped and got
dinner. It wasn’t until around 8:30 p.m.
that we finally made it back to Macomb.
It was a long trip, an emotional one, but I will never forget any of my
trips with the Western Illinois Women’s Golf Team.</span></span></div>

arrived on Thursday into Fort Wayne, Ind. First order of business; the Summit
League Banquet. A night where we can wear something other than sweats and
actually look like a group of civilized human beings. The night began with
opening speeches and dinner, both of which were wonderful. After we had stopped
gorging, we began with the awards ceremony. This part of the night was
fantastic as so many members of each team were recognized for all their hard
work and effort throughout the regular season. It was an honor walking up with
my co-captain and doubles partner Henry Craig to receive the regular season
champion’s trophy on behalf of our team. We also were lucky enough to receive a
speech that outlined the “Seven components of a championship team”, a speech
that did a great job in outlining the characteristics and requirements that any
winning team needs to have. After the banquet we went straight back to work; no
rest for the wicked. We practiced from 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. … we slept well
that night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />The following day (Friday) consisted of two practices, one
in the morning and one in the afternoon. The entire team was striking the ball
great as we worked through our regular ‘on-the-road’ drills. After practices
were done we all had a solid two hour break before we would have to freshen up
and get ready for dinner. I’m sure I speak for the whole team when I say we
spent every minute studying and most definitely did not take a nap… For dinner
we accompanied the Denver Women’s Team to Biaggi’s for another good meal. Both
the women and us had just found out who we would be taking on in the
semi-finals; Oral Roberts for us and South Dakota for the women. After an
inspirational team talk back at the hotel we all returned to our rooms to rest
up for our 10 am face-off against ORU. Preparation had begun.</span></div>

Surprisingly perky,
we headed to the indoor facility at 8:15am after breakfast where our semi-final
would take place. Banter was flying as we made the finishing touches to our
preparation; applying fresh grips, filling up water bottles etc. We felt good,
we felt ready. Also working in our favor was the crowd, or rather one member of
it. Our Athletic Director Ron Grahame had taken a detour from his work trip to
come and support us in our semi-final. This gave us even more wind beneath our
wings as we went on to take the doubles point in a storming fashion.
Transferring the momentum over into singles play, we took 6 first sets. Our #4
David Fox (Foxy) would get the second point on the board, followed by our #2
Diogo Rocha (Diogz) tallying us up to 3-0. Henry Craig (Hank) would clinch the
victory for Denver as he swept his way to a straight sets victory at the #1
position. We were in the finals, but we weren’t done yet. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 107%;">After an afternoon of supporting the women through their semi-final
victory over USD, we returned to the hotel to catch up on our studies. For real
this time. Dinner consisted of typical pre-match food; pasta. Feeling good
about our win but not getting ahead of ourselves, we discussed the final. We
knew IPFW were an extremely worthy foe as they had proven more than difficult
in the final last year. We were expecting their very best as any team plays
exponentially better when in front of their home crowd. We went to bed itching
with excitement for the opportunity to take them on. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Sunday started just as Saturday had; 7 a.m. wake up, head
to the courts at 8:15 and start our final preparation. After the national
anthem, we huddled in. Very few words were said as we knew what we had to do. A
loud home crowd and one or two controversial issues brought the best out of the
guys, we responded with high focus and high energy taking the doubles point
with wins at #2 and #3. Going into singles we knew it was far from over, there
was still a lot of work to do. But I could not be more proud of how we came out
as one unit and kept the momentum in our favor. I took the first win at #3
singles to give us the 2-0 lead. Henry would carry us to 3-0 with another
straight sets victory at #1. Diogo would extend his extremely impressive record
and bring home the clinch and give us the automatic berth to the NCAA
tournament. We were going to the big dance! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 107%;">After we had been through the formalities and took a
well-deserved shower, we got behind the women’s team and saw them also claim
the championship. Overall a very good weekend for Denver! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

championships. And that is what it felt like, a true championship tournament. </span></div>

We left campus at 8 a.m. on Thursday morning to go to
Indiana for our league tournament. We had a two-hour flight and road trip a
head of us and we all were tired but excited about what this weekend was going
to offer. We arrived about twenty minutes before our conference banquet was
going to start and we rushed to get ready for it. Prizes were handed out five
girls on our team made the all-league team and we won the regular season title
after going undefeated through all of our matches. I (Michelle) had the honor
to go up and receive our prize and it was an amazing feeling that we had won it
again second year in a row. After the banquet we had tennis practice from 8:30
p.m. to 10 p.m. After a long day of traveling we all thought that this was
going to be a long and tough practice but it turned out to be one of the better
ones we have had this whole year and it was so fun to see the team all fired up
for the weekend. After that it was bedtime. </div>

We got to sleep a little bit today, which means we woke up
at around 8:30 a.m. and had breakfast. This day was all about practice and
getting ready for tomorrows semifinal. We had practice from 10:30 a.m. till
12:00. After this we went to lunch and then we had practice for a second time from
2:00 p.m. till 4:00 p.m. The first practice we did a lot of doubles drills and
match play and the second practice was more about singles. It was amazing to
see how focused we were during these practices because we knew that even though
we had won against all of the teams earlier in the year we wanted to be as
prepared as possible for this weekend. The two goals that we set for this
weekend and ourselves were effort and positivity. These were the two things
that our coaches wanted us to think about when playing these other teams. After
this we showered and went to dinner with University of Denver Men’s Tennis. It
was fun to be able to hang out and talk to the guys because we are both going
into the tournament with a target on our back, being the team that is predicted
to win conference. It is never easy being the favorite to win and many people
have high expectations on you so the dinner worked as a little break from
thinking about conference. After dinner most of us went to our rooms and either
did some homework or watched TV before going to bed. </div>

We all woke up
and had breakfast at 8:30 a.m. Since the weather was really bad and it was
raining, the matches were moved indoors. Our match was scheduled at 2:00 p.m.
After breakfast most of us went back to bed and got another hour and half of
sleep before getting ready to leave for lunch. Once we had lunch we went
straight to the courts where we were going to play our match. This is where we
had hit on Thursday night so we all knew how the courts are, which is always a
comfortable feeling. We warmed up and hit for an hour before our match and
there was a lot of positive energy coming from everyone on the team. We were
all pumped up, excited and ready to go for our match. We started with doubles
and all of us played very well. We clinched our matches at number one and two
doubles so they got done first. After we realized we won the doubles point we
all gathered around to get mentally prepared for the singles matches that were
a head of us. We all felt good and everyone who was playing singles did their
own thing for about five minutes to prepare themselves. We got good leads on
all courts and Evy [Van Genechten] was the one who clinched the win 4-0. It was
great feeling but also a relief to have completed our first match and knowing
that we are in the final. We worked hard and had positive attitudes throughout
the whole day, which lead to success. We want to give credit to South Dakota for
competing hard that day. After this we had dinner and as the day before we all
went to our rooms and did whatever we had to do to prepare for the next day. </div>

The league final has finally come and the day started with
breakfast at 8:30 a.m. As the day before our match time was at 2 p.m. or as
soon as the boys finished up their match. After breakfast we went back to our
rooms, dressed into our match outfits and packed our bags. We left the hotel at
11 a.m. to get lunch and go watch the men’s conference final. This time the
weather was better and we were able to play outside. It was fun seeing the guys
play and they did really well. Once they had won the conference title we got on
the courts and warmed up for our match. We warmed up and went through our
normal routine before matches. The energy was on top and we were all excited
about the match and challenge that was a head of us. Doubles started at 1:30
p.m. and as yesterday we played very good doubles. Charlotte [Derbyshire] and I
clinched the doubles point and gave the team a 1-0 lead. We all gathered around
for another pep talk before heading out for singles. Looking up at the
scoreboard we were up on all courts in the first set by a lot. Our team was
playing very well today and probably the best we had played against a
conference team all year. It was very exciting and fun to watch. Everyone was
doing the two goals we set for ourselves before the weekend, positive and
effort. This time Charlotte was the won who got to clinch the match with a 6-3
6-1 victory. We all ran into a group hug and it was a great feeling. Knowing
that all of the hours on and off the court, the traveling and the matches we
had played had prepared us for this moment. It is so worth it! South Dakota
State played very well against us and it was a battle until the end. We
achieved two goals in one day that we set for ourselves this year and that was
to win conference and make it to NCAA and we did it. There is no way to
describe the feeling of accomplishing something that you have been working for
all year but we are going dancing. For some people this is their first
conference victory and for others this will be their last but for all of us
this is a memory that we will cherish and remember the rest of our lives. </div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What an atmosphere! The Summit League doesn’t get enough
credit. Playing in the new Danny Sanford PREMIER Center was incredible. As a
senior, it was really special to end my career in such a great basketball
environment. The competition between all the teams this year made the season a
lot of fun. There were no guaranteed wins or losses for any team and that
carried over into the tournament. I’m going to miss playing, but I will also
miss playing in The Summit League. </span></span></div>

shoot around at 7:30 a.m. (which was actually 6:30 a.m.) and then went back to the
hotel. Don’t worry, we napped. When we came down the elevator to leave for the
game, all of our parents were waiting to send us off and wish us luck. Our
parents and fans are awesome and have been so supportive over the years.
Obviously, we’re a little further from Sioux Falls than SDSU or USD, so it was
really neat to see so many purple shirts and familiar faces in the stands
cheering us on. </span></span><br />

there are countless remarkable stories of service among this year’s
group of nominees. As full-time students and athletes, these players
choose to dedicate their limited free time to improving the lives of
those around them.</span></span><br />
