Pirate Brew 10/18: It's Auerswald

Today, we're looking at Kim Auerswald being a significant duo in women's tennis.

Good morning. You know how good our football team looks in the all-black uniforms? Well, they look so good that UNISWAG ranked them No. 6 in the Week 7 countdown.

What else are we mixing into today's Brew?

⛳️ Third place finish for the women
🎾 Women’s tennis snags eight wins
​🏴‍☠️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Top Three. The ECU women’s golf team took third place in the Edisto Island Invitational against 16 other teams. Danielle Modder led the Pirates with a score of 209 (-1), which is also a career low for her. She tied for third place in the individual rankings and was the only Pirate to hit under par overall.

🔼 Great Eight. The women’s tennis team finished the UNCG Invite with eight wins under its belt. The team was missing four of its top players because they were at the ITA Regionals and still picked up multiple wins. The doubles duo Kim Auerswald and Anne Lou Champion went 2-1. Champion also had a singles victory over Western Carolina.

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA

Last Lap. The women’s tennis team will compete in its last event this weekend, and it's not too far away to go watch! Make a little day trip to see the Pirates compete at the ITA Carolina Regional in Chapel Hill, N.C., at the Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center.

Today’s question— what is the most amount of wins the team has collected in one event?
