UNK Sweeps William Jewell & Colorado Mesa

Kearney, Neb. – The Nebraska Kearney tennis teams dominated Wiliam Jewell (Mo.) and Colorado Mesa Friday at the Ernest Grundy Tennis Center.

The Loper men (3-2) won by 6-1 (WJC) and 4-0 (CMU) scores with the women (3-0) sweeping the Cardinals, 7-0, and Mavericks, 4-0. Both squads host Rockhurst (Mo.) on Saturday afternoon.

Returning to action for the first time since the fall, the Loper women allowed just one point in doubles against the WJC Cards (1-1) while taking each singles match in straight sets. Both Masha Hatouka (Belarus) and Alexis Bernthal (Boulder, Colo.) won by 6-0, 6-0 scores.

Against the CMU Mavs (4-3) in the afternoon, UNK took the doubles points thanks to wins of 6-1 and 6-0 at two and three and then won at two, five and six singles.

Finally, UNK was poised to win the other three singles matches.
