SALT LAKE CITY – The University of Utah women's tennis team swept Utah State tonight with a final score of 7-0, to move the Utes to 3-1 on the season.
"I thought we did a great job today of coming out and seizing control of the match with some really explosive doubles play," said head coach Mat Iandolo. "That set the tone for the rest of the match, I felt like we played really good tennis at one and two, and played pretty well throughout the rest of the lineup as well."
The Utes started things off by capturing the doubles point against the Aggies to take the early lead. On the No. 3 court, Brianna Chisholm and Victoria Roberston defeated Sabrina Demerath and Alexandra Taylor with a final score of 6-1. Whitney Turley and Taylor Calton then sealed the doubles point with a win over Sasha Pisavera and Maggie O'Meara at the No. 2 spot, finishing 6-1.
In singles, Jena Cheng started off strong by getting a quick victory against Hannah Jones at the No. 3 position, scoring 6-2, 6-1. Brianna Chisholm then followed with a win on her own at the No. 2 spot, defeating Rhoda Tanul, 6-2, 6-3. Taylor Calton, Whitney Turley, and Alexia Petrovic also recorded victories for the Utes, winning in straight sets. Victoria Robertson faced a highly competitive match against Lucy Octave, but was able to come out on top with a final score of 7-5, 2-6, 10-6, to give the Utes the 7-0 sweep.
The Utah women's tennis team will be back in action this Saturday, Feb. 17th, matching up against the University of Denver at 1 p.m., followed by Weber State at 5:30 p.m. The women's tennis team will be providing pizza to fans who attend the match against the University of Denver. Against Weber State, the University of Utah will be hosting Tommy Tough Day, where the men and women will play simultaneously at 5:30 p.m. The proceeds of this event will go towards the Child Heart Disease research and families.
