Women's Tennis Takes Care of Academy of Art in 7-0 Sweep

AZUSA, Calif. – The No. 4 women's tennis team continued their win streak against PacWest opponents by taking down Academy of Art University in a 7-0 sweep. 
 
The Sharks (8-4) have now won 12 straight over the Knights (4-3). 
 
Doubles Competition

Doubles partners Rikona Murikami and Nicole Ballach took the first point of the day, taking down their opponents 6-1. Abigail Wild and Elodie Busson also had a swift match, winning 6-2. Marleen Tilgner and Shaline Pipa were in an intense 5-3 matchup before it was called off due to Hawaii Pacific winning two of the doubles matches. 
 
Singles Competition

HPU handled business in the singles competition. Pipa, Elodie, Tilgner, and Lynn Kader each allowed their opponents six games or less. Tilgner found the biggest margin of victory, taking her duel 6-1, 6-2 over Julia Ortega. 
 
Ballach and Wild had a tougher time, both needing to win a tiebreaker game. However, no sets were dropped by the side of Hawaii Pacific as they took the 7-0 sweep over the Knights.  

The Sharks will be back in action tomorrow, March 6, when they take on the Barry University Buccaneers.
