by Mia Wenzel–The men’s tennis team won 6-1 over Mount Marty Oct. 16, giving Coach Alex Struck his 100th win.
The men’s fall season ended undefeated 3-0. The women’s tennis team added another win, making the fall season an undefeated 4-0. The Mustangs won against Mount Marty by a score of 5-2.
“I’m humbled and honored to pick up win number 100 in my career, and I’m thankful they’ve all been at Morningside, as this place means a lot to me. I’ve been fortunate to be surrounded by many good people here and this isn’t possible without our student-athletes’ commitment and hard work. While wins are nice, the journey behind these matches, with these people, is what makes moments like this so special. I look forward to what’s yet to come for this team this year and our program overall as we continue ahead,” Coach Struck said.
Struck (Class of 2016) played tennis at Morningside under then-Head Coach Larry Mason and has been coaching here since 2021. He has hit many milestones with the team like taking the first Mustang to win the ITA Regional Championships, helping the men’s and women’s teams beat Midland, and bringing the GPAC tournament to Morningside.
