Road matches no problem for tennis team

After time delays and difficult weather cancelling matches, the Kansas women’s tennis team won two matches against New Mexico State and the University of Texas-El Paso on the road this weekend.

The Jayhawks won a 4-3 decision against New Mexico State on Saturday. All three doubles teams lost and all six singles matches were forced to a third-set tie breaker. But junior Maria Martinez, senior Kuni Dorn, sophomore Ekaterina Morozova and freshman Vika Khanevskaya won in singles play.

The team moved on to UTEP where they won four out of five singles matches before Khanevskaya’s match, along with all three doubles matches, were cancelled due to rain and strong winds.

With their victories the Jayhawks broke UTEP’s seven game-winning streak and Kansas moves to 5-3 on the season.

Kansas will look to continue their road trip next weekend taking on Tulane and New Orleans.
