Ferris State Women's Tennis Inks Morgan Waller During Fall Signing Period

Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University women's tennis squad has announced the addition of Morgan Waller (Saskatchewan), who signed with the Bulldogs during the recent fall signing period and will join the program next fall.

The addition of Waller was announced by FSU interim head coach Mark Doren.

"We're excited to be adding Morgan to our team," he said. "She is very talented and I believe she'll make a big impact in the lineup as a freshman."

This past fall, Ferris State finished the fall campaign by winning three of its final four matches and the Bulldogs were victorious in four of their last six overall under Doren's direction. FSU also had a pair of All-Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) honorees in seniors Nika Hein and Nicole Meylor.

FSU is tentatively slated to open the spring season on Feb. 10 against Hillsdale in regional road action at 3:30 p.m. (ET) in Hillsdale, Mich.
