Amaro Named Gulf South Conference Co-Player of the Year; Guemes Earns Second Team Honors

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The Christian Brothers University women's tennis team made history, on Wednesday, as it saw Raquel Amaro named Gulf South Conference Co-Player of the Year, and Esther Guemes earn Second Team All-GSC honors. 

Amaro is the first player in program history to earn First Team All-GSC honors. It is also the first time in team history that more than one Lady Buc has been named to an All-Conference team in the same year. 

The last individual honor for a CBU women's tennis team member was when Lauren Woog earned second team laurels in 2016.

Amaro finished the regular season with a perfect 15-0 record, which includes a win over Berta Bonardi, of West Florida, who also earned GSC Co-Player of the Year honors. During her undefeated run, Amaro dropped just two sets. 

Guemes has turned in an outstanding senior campaign in which she has earned a league-best 13 wins at the No. 2 singles position. The Madrid, Spain native has suffered just two setbacks in singles play this season. 

Amaro and Guemes have been just as dominant at the No. 1 doubles court. The pair has claimed a GSC best 14 wins, while dropping just one match.

The Lady Bucs are scheduled to return to action on Thursday, April 22 when they travel to Montgomery, Ala., for the Gulf South Conference Championships. This marks the first time in program history that the Lady Bucs have earned a qualifying spot for the tournament.
