[Tennis] Sitnikova takes leadership of tennis teams

More than 10 years ago, Georgetown College Vice President of Athletics Brian Evans had a very important hire to make. The Tigers tennis programs had been through some upheaval with a carousel of coaches, and he needed to make the right hire. He did not have to look far, as fellow alums who were standout tennis Tigers in their day stepped forward.

Jessica and Michael Cunningham came in and did more than right the ship, they put the programs back on the map. For the past two years, the couple has also had the assistance of Alexandra Sitnikova, a 2009 Eastern Kentucky University graduate and Ohio Valley Conference phenom.

"It's time to pass the reins," Jessica said. "We aren't going far and you'll still see our faces, but it is time for someone else to steer this program on the day to day aspect."
