NIU women’s tennis coach Patty Groth is really looking forward to this weekend.

It hasn’t been a rough week at work, it’s just that this weekend is the spring portion of the Huskies’ 1990-91 schedule. And it all begins with the University of Notre Dame’s Eck Doubles Classic—a meet that has proven to be a positive experience for NIU in the past. Friday through Saturday’s (Jan. 25-27) meet at the UND Eck Tennis Pavilion has starting sessions of 1 p.m., 10 a.m., and 9 a.m.

Among the regional powers expected to compete are Ohio State University, Miami (OH) University and the University of Illinois.
