ANGOLA, Ind. – The Trine University women's team made known their 2022-23 schedule ahead of the upcoming fall semester. The Thunder were 11-7 overall one year ago and helped get head coach Erin Kolar to her 100th career victory at the helm of both the men's and women's tennis programs at Trine.
The women open the season with a road match at Manchester University on September 6, then travel to Franklin College to face the Grizzlies and Webster University in a tri-match on September 10. The road trip continues when the team competes in the Hope College Invite on September 16-17.
Trine will be in action in a pair of home matches on back-to-back days late in the month. Anderson University comes to Angola on September 19 and Indiana University-Kokomo on September 20. The fall portion of the schedule concludes at the ITA Regional Championships on September 30 through October 2 in St. Louis, Missouri.
The annual spring break trip to Orlando, Florida kicks off the spring season on March 6-9. From there, the Thunder will hold two non-conference matches to prepare for Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) action. On March 14, Manchester University completes their home-and-home series with Trine and the team will visit the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology on March 19.
The Thunder were 4-4 in MIAA matches last season and are scheduled to be on the road against four of the team's first five conference opponents. They go to Olivet College (March 22), Albion College (March 25) and Adrian College (April 1) before playing host to Alma College on April 4, and hitting the road again to square off with Hope College on April 7.
From there, the final three matches of the regular season will be contested on home soil. Trine will take on Saint Mary's College on April 12, followed by Calvin University on April 15 and end the regular season versus Kalamazoo College on April 22.
