Tennis at this level is one of those high character sports where you make your own calls about whether a ball is in or out. It demands sportsmanship similar to what you find in golf and the UWF players live up to the responsibility. These are talented players who are frequently ranked highly in the country. This is exciting tennis played at a championship collegiate level! UWF has players from Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and several foreign countries. They proudly represent Argentina, Brazil, Canada, France, Peru, Russia, Sweden and Venezuela. Thank you for your efforts. Gracias por sus esfuerzos. Obrigado por seus esforços.
