With the weekend sweep, the 15th-ranked Mustangs get three wins over Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference opponents, an important statistic for regional seeding later in the year. “I?really think we played much better on Saturday in the two matches, and to be honest, we had to because of the teams we played,” SMSU?head coach Terry Culhane said. “We were more consistent, we played with a lot of energy and played hard. It was encouraging to see.” Junior Devin Diedrich and sophomore Kenzie Niesche were named to the All-Tournament team, while Diedrich was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Playe.
