Pacific Lutheran women's tennis has
proven annually to be among the top small college
programs in the region. Certainly, PLU has been
very successful in the tough Northwest Conference
with 15 team titles in the past 27 years.
Lorrie Wood, who has been playing
or teaching tennis for 29 years in the Pacific Northwest,
is the head coach of the PLU women’s tennis
team. In her first season as head coach, she led
the Lutes to a fourth-place finish in the 2007 Northwest
Conference championship tournament.
Wood, a resident of Fox Island, played
tennis at Green River Community College in 1979-80
and at the University of Washington from 1980-82.
She earned one varsity letter during the 1982 season
as a member of the Husky women’s tennis team.
She has been an assistant coach with the Gig Harbor
High School boys tennis program since 2005, at the
same time serving as the Fox Island summer junior
tennis program’s head instructor.
As usual, the Lutes' schedule will
be liberally sprinkled with outstanding competition.
In addition to playing the best teams in the Pacific
Northwest, PLU also makes spring break trips to
face top-notch teams. In recent years the Lutes
have spent a week in the southeastern part of the
country, in California and Hawaii.
