Men's Tennis Player Henderson Named Behrend Athlete of the Week

Penn State Behrends freshmen tennis player Jon Henderson (Upper St. Clair/Upper St. Clair)  has been named the ENTERPRISE RENT-A-CAR athlete of the week for the week of April 14, 2008. 

On Sunday, the Penn State Behrend men's tennis team captured the 2008 AMCC Tournament Championship.  Henderson was able to win titles in both single and doubles play to aid his team to victory.  Jon won in #5 singles play and then teamed up with fellow freshman Elliot Blackstone (Wexford/Pine-Richland) to take away the #2 doubles title. 

This marks the third AMCC Championship for the blue and white and their first since 2004.  The men finish conference play undefeated for the 2008 season.
