SEWANEE, Tenn. - Veteran Sewanee women's tennis
coach Conchie Shackelford recorded her 400th
career win on Saturday with a 9-0 shutout of visiting Agnes Scott
College. Shackelford's career record is 400-150 (.727) in her 24th
season, making her the winningest coach in Sewanee athletics
history. Shackelford has coached 27 All-Americans, the 1993 ITA
national doubles champions, nine top-10 teams, and has won six
conference championships (four WIAC, two SCAC).
"Winning 400 matches is a truly remarkable accomplishment and
places Conchie in a very select group of head coaches.," added
Sewanee athletic director Mark Webb. "The winning tradition that
she has established with our scholar-athletes exemplifies the very
best in Sewanee athletics."
On Saturday, the Tigers started out with a 3-0 lead after the
doubles round, including a come-from-behind win at #2 for Devin
Tellatin (St. Louis, Mo., Ladue) and Michelle Flume (San Antonio,
Texas, St. Mary's Hall). In Singles, the Tigers were a perfect 6-0,
with Meredith Lawrence (Nashville, Tenn., Harpeth Hall) and
Kathleen Catherall (Nashville, Tenn., Harpeth Hall) picking up
exhibition wins at # 7 and #8, also.
The Tigers are 2-2 so far in 2010 and will host SCAC foe Oglethorpe
on Sunday.
