University of Tennessee at Chattanooga senior women's tennis student-athlete Kayla Jones is the Southern Conference Player of the Month, the league office announced today.  Jones went 4-1 in singles at No. 1 to lead the Mocs to a 6-0 mark in February.

"She is certainly deserving of this honor," stated head coach Jeff Clark.  "She is off to a great start and is a big part of our recent winning streak."

The Mocs have won seven in a row and are 7-4 overall.  UTC won its SoCon opener on Saturday, 6-1 at UNCG.

Jones has also been solid in doubles play.  She and Kelsey Coots went 6-0 at No. 1 last month and are 8-1 in the top spot in the spring. 

UTC is back on the road this weekend for a match at Morehead State.  The Mocs face the Eagles at Noon on Saturday, March 12.  UTC won last year's meeting 7-0 and is 3-0 in the series.
