...women's tennis is suffering from a general decline in the program not a move to the ACC. 10 years ago they were a perennial Sweet 16 team and at their peak a Final Four team. They could compete with the class of the ACC back then. Jay Louderback did an amazing job building that program, but it's time for some new blood.
That also seems a bizarre way to characterize women's soccer given that it was a national powerhouse.
at home to SIU-Edwardsville. The previous year the team was shutout in the second round by former Big East foe, Connecticut. National powerhouses don't lose that early in the post-season and recruiting seems to be less effective than it was before joining the ACC. Adding Nate Norman to the coaching staff should help all aspects of the program.
...not "we're as good as we've always been it's just that we're in a new conference where it's harder to win."
