JACKSONVILLEÂ - North Florida women's tennis continued its perfect record in ASUN play as it took down Lipscomb, 5-2, on a chilly Thursday evening.
QUICK HITS
- UNF (14-6, 4-0 ASUN) picked up the doubles point as it dropped just four games in the victories. Eva Nyikos and Lucia Montano paired up to win 6-2, before the No. 1 pair of Luise Intert and Rafaela won by the same score.
- Freshman Florencia Rossi made quick work of Kateryna Kandyba as she took the No. 6 match for the 2-0 lead.
- Lipscomb then got on the board with a win in the No. 2 spot before freshman Valentina Mariotto grabbed the victory at the No. 5 spot for the 3-1 advantage.
- In the No. 3 position, Montano cruised to a first-set win before falling in the second, but she wore out her opponent as she went on to win in the final set 6-1.
- With the match clinched, Intert won her second set, 7-5 before winning the match on a super tiebreak 1-0 (6) win.
COBRA'S CORNER
"I have to give credit to Lipscomb as they are a tough team and battled for every point tonight, but I am happy we came away with a win. Our girls made it a little harder on themselves, but they kept their heads in the game with several coming back from being down and continued with their game plan which led to our results. Each match we have learned something and with just two ASUNÂ games left - we are going to put those lessons to work as we close out the schedule." - Head Coach Mariana Cobra
