Columbia, Mo. – Sophomore Mallory Weber earned All-tournament honors after participating in the Florida Golf Coast University Invite/John Kriek Tennis Classic last weekend. The tournament selected six other ladies along with Weber for the team.

Weber went undefeated during her stay in Fla., racking up four individual victories. Each of Weber's wins was earned in two sets. The highlight of the John Kriek Classic came on the final day for Weber as she took down No. 70 nationally-ranked Andrea Yacaman of the University of Central Florida. The 6-2, 6-3 win capped a perfect weekend for Weber as she went undefeated in doubles as well. Weber paired up with freshman Jamie Mera for doubles play in Fla.

Weber is back in action with the Tigers this weekend as the ladies will head north for some Big Ten tennis action. Missouri will compete with Purdue on Friday (Jan. 23) before heading to Ohio State for a match-up with the Buckeyes on Saturday (Jan. 24).
