Budiharto Earns National Honor

The ITA awarded Wichita State women's tennis student-athlete
Lutfiana Budiharto the Cissie Leary Award for Sportsmanship today.

The ITA/Cissie Leary Award for Sportsmanship goes to a Division I women's player who displays inspiring dedication and commitment to her team, which has enhanced her team's performance and exemplified the spirit of college tennis. It dates back to 1997 and is memory of the late and widely admired Penn women's tennis coach Cissie Leary.

Budiharto has a record of 108-25 in singles competition in her four-year
career at Wichita State, and led the Shockers with a record of 24-5 in
singles play during the 2011-12 season.

She will compete in the NCAA Individual Championships in Athens, Ga. May
23-28.
