A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME PLEASE.....

Hey Ponyfans,

The SMU Women's Tennis Team has a home conference match this Friday at 12:00pm against Tulane. Even though we are ranked #25 in the country and are currently 7-1 we really need to draw a large, screaming crowd to help us against Tulane. If yall are not busy at work we would love to have you come and cheer during your lunch break! Even if you only stay for the doubles, that would be great! Texas & ATM all average between 200-500 people a match and it does make a huge difference in the match atmosphere (we are ranked above both teams BTW). If you can't make it on Friday, our next home match is on Sunday at noon against OSU and we need you then too (get your church in at the 9am service).

I have a VERY feisty/aggressive squad who makes a lot of noise and likes to have people cheer loud for them. If you are not aware of the proper etiquette for cheering at tennis matches let me inform you that loud screams, taunting, beating on bleachers seats, bull horns, cow bells and overall obnoxious behavior is all acceptable and appreciated for our matches.

Even if you are not a tennis fan I ask that you give it a chance and see that it is not as proper/quiet/boring as you might think.... please come out and support a VERY GOOD SMU TEAM!!!

The weather on Friday looks grim for an outdoor match but we will make a decision Friday morning and will post the indoor location and time on the smu website and I will also post here on ponyfans. FYI: If the weather is above 40 and not raining we will go outdoors...

The weather on [b]Sunday for the OSU match (start time 12:00pm[/b]) looks pretty good so plan on coming out to Turpin after church for the match! My father should be out there with his grill so if you would like to bring some lunch to throw on the grill please do! There will be a women's Basketball game @ 2:00pm in Moody so you should be able to have a great day on the Hilltop supporting SMU Athletics!

And just a reminder, SMU Men's Basketball has a game tonight against UTEP, please come out and support our guys TONIGHT! I will be here so if you see me please come up and chat I would love to meet some Ponyfans!
