Match Recap: Women's Tennis | | Morgan Vogels

Women's Tennis Downs Webster

The Big Blue women's tennis team bounced back from their road loss on Friday with a win against the Gorloks of Webster University at the Fairview Park Tennis Complex on Saturday, September 13. The win marks head coach Connor Barnard's first career victory as a head coach. 

After falling in doubles play with the partnership of Sarah Parsons and Addi Ross accounting for their lone doubles win in a 6-3 match over Evie Schuetz and Doreen Eyongeta, the Big Blue needed to win four singles matches to earn the victory.

Isabella Griffiths was the victor at No. 1, winning the first set 7-5 before falling in set two 1-6, then she bounced back to win the deciding set 6-3. Kristen Armstrong earned her second collegiate win, downing Abby Cristea 6-0, 6-1 at No. 3 singles. Sarah Parsons picked up a win by retirement at No. 4 after taking a 5-2 lead in the first set. Tessa Koehler earned the final victory with twin 6-0 set wins over Analiese Smith at No. 5. 

The Big Blue will travel to Rock Island, Ill. for a matchup with the Vikings of Augustana College on Tuesday, September 16.
