BEVERLY, Mass. — Endicott women's tennis student-athletes Justine Hoover (Wallingford, Conn.) and Shelby Henry (Lincoln, Neb.) swept the Commonwealth Coast Conference women's tennis weekly awards, the league office announced earlier today. 

Hoover earned Player of the Week honors, while Henry received Rookie of the Week laurels. 

Hoover earned four victories in the Gulls CCC Tournament Championship run going 2-0 at No. 2 doubles and 2-0 at No. 1 singles. In doubles play, she earned an 8-1 against Gordon's second pairing in the semifinal before earning an 8-2 result against Nichols in the Championship. Both of her singles matches were handled in straight sets and both clinched the match for the Gulls.
