Utes pick up three singles wins and two doubles wins on final day.
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Utah women's tennis team has wrapped up the final day of competition at the Kentucky Invite. Utah took on Miami University (Ohio) in doubles play on Sunday, while matching up against opponents from DePaul, West Virginia, and Kentucky in singles at the Top Seed Tennis Club.
The Utes concluded the Kentucky Invite by taking two-of-three doubles matches on the day, along with tabbing three singles wins.
"These matches were great experience for us," Ute head coach Ric Mortera said. "We feel that we are continuing to learn and improve every day. We are excited to keep on that path and are looking forward to what is to come."
Beginning Sunday's final day of competition with doubles, the duo of Anya Lamoreaux and Lindsay Hung picked up the first win of the day for the Utes, as they took on Miami's Laura Rico and Lena Babunski, coming out on top 8-1. Madeline Lamoreaux and Emily Dush then followed with a win of their own. Lamoreaux and Dush faced off against Milana Lysova and Makenzie Myers, beating out the duo 8-5 to finish out doubles play for the weekend.
Madison McKay and Jasmine Rich were also paired together in doubles and fell short against Miami's Brindtha Ramasam and Priyana Kalita with a score of 1-8.
Later in the day with singles, Hung then kept things rolling with a win against DePaul's Lenka Antonijevic in a close and competitive match, escaping 7-6 (1), 7-6 (4) to record the straight-set victory. Madeline Lamoreaux then played against Diana Tkachenko from Kentucky, as she was able to roll to a 6-3, 6-2 victory.
The final victory of the day for the Utes came from freshman Katya Hersh, as she carded a victory against Brianna Tulloch. Hersh won the first set, 7-6 (7), before Tulloch was forced to retire due to injury.
Anya Lamoreaux dropped a three-set match on the final day of the Kentucky Invite, while McKay and Rich also fell just short in their matches against opponents from West Virginia.
The Utah women's tennis team will be back in action next weekend as they will head to the UNLV Invite to continue fall competition. The tournament will be held Friday through Sunday, Nov. 8-10, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
