DOUBLES: Michael Herman/Frankie Mullinix, Midori Fujtani/Jack Hodges, Seth Hoesman/David Spivey

To be eligible for the All-Decade Team, a student-athlete must have competed for at least one season between the 2010 and 2019 seasons. They also must be a graduate or still enrolled at Goucher College. In addition, only the statistics during the years of 2010 and 2019 are eligible so statistics that occur before the year 2010 or after the year 2019 do not count toward the All-Decade team vote.

We hope to see everyone back on Monday to vote for the Women's Tennis All-Decade team!
