Junior Louisa Werner (pictured left) and freshman Renee Verboven (pictured right) of the University of Missouri–St. Louis women’s tennis team have been selected to the All-Great Lakes Valley Conference team, as announced last week by the league.

Werner, who is majoring in finance and international business, earned the honor for the third straight season. She owns a 19-6 singles record, playing at Nos. 1 and 2. She was 3-1 in GLVC matches.

Verboven, who is enrolled in the Pre-Engineering Program, also went 3-1 in GLVC play and owns an 18-7 singles record, splitting time at Nos. 1, 2 and 3.

In doubles action, Werner and Verboven teamed together to record a team-best 18-4 mark at the No. 1 position, which included a 3-2 GLVC mark. 

UMSL, which finished the regular season with an 11-6 record, competed in the 2013 GLVC Tournament last weekend in Indianapolis. The Tritons, seeded No. 3 in the West Division, ended the season losing to No. 2 seed in the East Division, University of Indianapolis, in a quarterfinal match.
