Storm duo medal at conference individual tournament

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - The duo of Korynna Olson and Anna Schewe medaled for the Simpson College women's tennis team at the American Rivers Conference Individual Tournament this weekend.

The duo won its first match by a score of 6-4, but fell in the semifinals. However, Olson and Schewe rebounded to take down the other losing semi finalists from Central to claim the bronze medal.
