Women's Tennis Falls to Youngstown State, Rebounds With Win Over Cleveland State

KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- The Western Michigan women's tennis team split its weekend matches, falling to Youngstown State 7-0 on Saturday before rebounding with a 5-2 win over Cleveland State at West Hills Athletic Club. 

YSU earned the doubles point with wins at No. 1 and No. 2 and was leading at No. 3 when that match was abandoned. In singles, no Bronco was able to win a set. 

CSU also took the doubles point from WMU after a pair of 7-5 wins at No. 1 and No. 2. The match was tied heading into doubles, as the Broncos were awarded a point because Cleveland State could only field five singles competitors. 

Freshman Frida Weijerman gave the Broncos the lead with a 6-4, 6-3 win over Melliz Mustafa at No. 5. CSU's Sima Heren tied it at 2-2 after she defeated Lola Glantz at No. 1 6-3, 7-5. Freshman Sienna Osborne broke the tie after a 7-5, 6-0 win at No. 4 over Filippa Fogner before graduate student Polina Khotko secured the match victory with a 6-1,  7-6 (7-5), win against Jenna Redmile at No. 3. WMU's fifth and final point came at the hands of graduate transfer Christine Gouws, who beat CSU's Tereze Vevere 2-6, 7-6 (7-3), 1-0 (12-10).

Western Michigan heads to Indiana University on Friday morning to take on the Hoosiers at 11 a.m. and then return to Kalamazoo to host Eastern Illinois on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
