JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—The University of North Florida women's tennis team heads to Orlando, Fla., for a mid-week match against UCF at the UCF Tennis Complex on Wednesday at 2 p.m.
Â
"UCF is a solid program that competes well, so I expect it to be a good match overall," said head coach Audra Cohen. "We have worked hard and made changes since the UCF Invitational in January. This should be a better test for us now that we have our feet under us."
Â
The Ospreys are fresh off a 7-0 home-opening sweep of Florida A&M last Sunday. Â UNF was victorious at the No. 2 and No. 3 spots in order to clinch the doubles point. The Ospreys then claimed straight-set victories at all six positions.
Â
UNF began this spring at the UCF Invitational Jan. 18-20. The Ospreys tallied nine singles wins and two doubles wins, which included three singles and a doubles win against the Knights. Marina Cunningham defeated UCF's Courtney Griffith 6-2, 6-3 at No. 2 singles, while Rebeca Pereira downed Clare Mendell 6-3, 4-6, 10-4 in the No. 5 spot. Mariella Calderon claimed the third singles win for the Ospreys with a 6-3, 6-1 victory over Cassie Hochwalt on court 7. The freshman duo of Michelle Valdez and Quetzali Vazquez posted the only doubles win over UCF with a 6-0 victory over Annika Hepp and Mendell at the No. 3 position.
Â
UCF goes into the match with a 2-1 record with wins over Bethune-Cookman and Florida Gulf Coast. The Knights' only loss comes from a Â7-0 setback to No. 2 Florida on January 29. The Knights' opened a seven-match homestand on Wednesday with a 5-2 victory over Bethune-Cookman. The Knights remain at home for the rest of February.
