INDIANAPOLIS – Missouri-St. Louis freshman Renee Verboven was named the Great Lakes Valley Conference Women’s Tennis Player of the Week for her performance in the Tritons’ 4-0 road wins last week, it was announced by the league office Tuesday.

Verboven won a pair of matches at No. 3 singles and notched four wins at No. 1 doubles to remain unbeaten in league play this spring.   She posted a 6-1, 6-3 victory over Southern Indiana’s Lindsey White at No. 2 singles during the Tritons’ cross division 5-1 win over the Screaming Eagles.  Verboven followed that performance at the No. 3 singles position with a victory over McKendree’s Nathalia Oliveria, and then prevailed over Quincy’s Allison Callahan, 6-0, 6-2.  Verboven closed the week not dropping a set over Illinois Springfield’s Faith Hook, 6-0, 6-0.
