FRESNO, Calif. — Freshman Alexandra Ozerets remained perfect in singles play, but Cal Poly women's tennis fell to Washington State 6-1 on Saturday afternoon in its first dual match in three weeks.
Â
For the second straight match, the Mustangs dropped the doubles point, after the Cougars clinched it with wins at the No. 2 and No. 3 spots.
Â
Despite WSU already securing the doubles point, the two teams decided to play out the match at the No. 1 doubles spot and Cal Poly's Peyton Dunkle (pictured above) and Delanie Dunkle emerged victorious, 6-4. The win allowed the sisters to improve to 2-1 on the season.
Â
In singles play, the Cougars clinched the dual victory with wins at the No. 1, 2 and 3 spots.
Â
Ozerets got the Mustangs on the board in a hard-fought singles match at the No. 6 spot. After dropping the first set against WSU's Stefaniia Mikhailova, Ozerets battled back and only dropped one game over the second and third sets, winning 2-6, 6-0, 6-0. She improved to 3-0 on the year.
Â
Delanie Dunkle nearly completed a comeback at the No. 4 spot, earning a 6-3 second-set victory before falling to the Cougars' Fifa Kumhom.
Â
Cal Poly (1-2) will remain in Fresno to face the Bulldogs (2-5), who fell to WSU 5-2 on Friday. Sunday's match starts at 11:30 a.m.
