The Ohio State women’s team took home its second-straight Big Ten regular-season championship over the weekend, making it a double for both the men and women this season (and last).

The OSU women did it by sweepingย Rutgers 4-0 over the weekend, to polish off a perfect 11-0 campaign in the conference. Five of the six contests resulted in sweeps for the Lady Bucks for a team currently ranked No. 10 in the nation.

Ohio State will now turn its attention to the upcoming Big Ten tournament set to take place beginning on Wednesday in Iowa City. Needless to say, the Buckeyes will be the No. 1 seed and overwhelming favorite before it looks to do damage in the NCAAs.

With all the success of both tennis programs at Ohio State as of late, if you are a youth tennis player in the Midwest or beyond, you could do a lot worse than honing your craft in Columbus.
