Tigers Sweep St. Mary's in Makeup Match

 

San Antonio - Trinity's women's tennis team swept a 9-0 decision from St. Mary's (TX) University on Friday afternoon, making up last weekend's rained out match.

Trinity (3-1) earned its first sweep of the season, and has yet to play a match against a Division III opponent.  St. Mary's, which competes in Division II, fell to 1-2 on the season.

All-Americans Alicia Hunt and Laura Steinmetz won 8-4 at No. 1 doubles, which turned out to be the closest doubles match of the day.  Teams of Erin Jamison/Katie Poettcker and Megan Fish/Cayleigh Simpson each won 8-2 and 8-1, respectively.

Fish and Poettcker played the top two singles positions as well, winning in straight sets.  Jamison won 6-4, 6-3 at No. 3 singles.  Heather Naeher won 6-3, 6-1 at No. 4, followed by Sarah Chalos winning 6-2, 6-3 at No. 5.  The final match of the draw was also the closest as Jennifer Taylor was taken to a tiebreaker (used instead of a third set), but still won 6-0, 5-7, 10-7.

The Tigers next play on Saturday, March 1, taking on both Hardin-Simmons and McMurry in a pair of regional matches.
