Tennis Brief: April 25, 2007

Two Kansas juniors were named to the Academic All-Big 12 tennis team Tuesday in an announcement from the Big 12 Conference. Lauren Hommell, Roswell, Ga., native, was one of 31 players named to the first team. Stephanie Smith, Salina native, was one of 12 named to the second team.

Players were selected for the team based on both academic and athletic achievement. A 3.2 or better grade point average was required for the first team, while a 3.0 is required for the second team.

Hommell has an 4-16 record this season and has competed at No. 4 singles and No. 2 doubles. Smith has a 12-15 record and has competed at the No. 6 singles and No. 3 doubles spots.

The Jayhawks continue their season Thursday at the Big 12 Championships in Kansas City, Mo.
