DALLAS, Texas – Three Middle Tennessee women's tennis players have been named All-Conference as announced by Conference USA, Monday afternoon. Lidia Burrows was named the All-Conference Singles Second Team, while Zani Barnard and Love-Star Alexis earned as spot on the All-Conference Doubles Second Team.

For Burrows, it is the third time in her career she has been named All-Conference after being on the first team in 2020 and the third team in 2017.

This season, the West Yorkshire native was the top player for the Blue Raiders, going 15-7 this spring. She closed her career out strong as she won her final seven matches of the season, having not been defeated since March 21. Burrows finishes her Blue Raider career as the MTSU record holder with 94 singles wins in her illustrious career.

Alexis and Barnard each earn All-Conference honors for the first time in their careers. The duo went 7-3 overall this season, including a 6-1 record at #2 doubles. Because of their dominance at number two, they earned opportunity to move up to number one, playing the final four matches of the season there, where they picked up an additional win against Louisiana Tech in the first round of the Conference USA Championships.
