YORK, PA – The York College women's tennis team cruised to a 6-1 win over Rutgers-Camden on a beautiful Saturday afternoon at the Myers Tennis Complex in York. The Spartans improve to 2-2 while the Scarlet Raptors fall to 4-3.Â
The match was the final in the lengthy career of Spartan head coach
Ryan Weber who announced earlier this fall that he was leaving the program at the end of October. Weber has served as the women's coach since the 2008 season. He was an assistant for two years after his playing career as a Spartan was completed. He recorded 126 wins at the helm of the Spartan program. Weber led the Spartans to the 2021 MAC Commonwealth championship as the Green and White made the program's lone NCAA Tournament appearance. He was named the league Coach of the Year for his efforts.
