Catherine Holliday Earns Atlantic Sun All-Freshman Honors

A-Sun Honors List

Macon, Ga. – Belmont women's tennis player Catherine Holliday has earned Atlantic Sun All-Freshman honors as announced by the conference office Wednesday afternoon.

Holliday, who saw her first season with the Bruins cut short in March due to a knee injury, finished with a singles record of 8-14 while competing at the number two and three positions. Her eight wins tied for second most on the team this season. The Tupelo, Mississippi native also earned five doubles victories with three different partners.

Catherine is the sixth Belmont women's tennis player to earn All-Freshman honors and the first since Abby Leatherwood in 2008. It also marks the eighth time in nine years that the women's tennis program has had at least one All-Conference or All-Freshman honoree.

Belmont finished their 2010 spring campaign with an overall record of 5-13 and a 1-9 mark in the Atlantic Sun Conference.
