FORT COLLINS, Colo. - Nevada Women's Tennis defeated Colorado State 4-0 to open up Mountain West play. The Pack took advantage of the shorthanded Rams, who were playing with five players.
With Colorado State down to five players, Nevada automatically won the third doubles match and sixth singles match, giving the Wolf Pack a massive advantage.
Only needing one of the doubles matches to win the point, Amahée Charrier and
Kennedy Robinson took care of business on court two, winning a key break to defeat Viktor Zhadzinskaya and Diana Lizarazo, 6-4
The Pack then immediately took a 2-0 win as Robinson was awarded the win on court six due to Colorado State not fielding a player.
Lou-Anne Guerbert got her second straight win defeating Victoria Erechtchenko in straight sets, 6-3, 6-1.
Charrier closed out the dual win for the Pack, defeating Sarah Weekely in the top-flight match via a second-set tiebreaker. Charrier held a break over Weekely in the first set to win 6-3 but had to fight through a tiebreaker, eventually winning it 7-2 to seal the set, match, and dual.
Marlene Foerster dropped her first set in a tiebreaker, 7-6 (5) but won the second set against Zhadzinskaya to tie the match as the dual was clinched.
Being limited to three courts,
Silvia-Maria Costache had barely begun her match as the dual finished.
Wiem Boubaker was slated in the fifth flight match, but the match did not get a chance to begin.
The Wolf Pack make the drive up to Laramie to take on the Wyoming Cowgirls at 10 a.m. on Sunday.
