San Antonio -
Trinity's women's tennis team was blanked by top-ranked Washington &
Lee University on Sunday morning in one of the final matches of the
Fab Five Women's Tennis Tournament.
Trinity (8-11) has lost six
of its last seven matches, but was shut out for the first time all
season. The Tigers were last shut out in the 2006 season
opener against Tarleton State University.
The Tigers, ranked 19th
nationally, lost in straight sets in all singles and doubles
matches. After winning six straight singles matches, Alicia
Hunt lost for the third straight time on Sunday.
First-year Krista Melish was
2-0 in singles matches in this Trinity-hosted tournament, but she
also fell at No. 3 singles.
Trinity will wrap up the
tournament with a match against Gustavus Adolphus College on Tuesday
afternoon. The Tigers will then travel across the street on
Friday to play the University of Incarnate Word, followed by a home
contest against Tyler Junior College on Saturday.
