APSU Sports: Austin Peay Women’s Tennis
Clarksville, TN – Austin Peay women’s tennis team completed a sweep of the Boulevard with a 7-0 win against Lipscomb, Saturday.
It was the second-straight win for a Lady Govs team that had seen its fair share of struggles through the season’s early going. After gaining their season’s first win, Friday, against Belmont, the Lady Govs rolled past mid-state rival Lipscomb.
Austin Peay won the doubles point, also its second-straight, and never looked back in singles play. Vanja Tomic and Alison Carre picked up the No. 1 doubles win, while it was Andra Cornea and Ornella DiSalvo getting the win at No. 2.
In singles play, the Lady Govs won the top five matches and Lipscomb defaulted at No. 6. Each match went in straight sets except Carre’s at No. 3 singles. Carre lost the first set, but rebounded to win the second and then the tiebreaker.
