The #8 ranked women's tennis team fell Friday afternoon to the #3 Lindsey Wilson 6-3. The day got off to a rough start as the Seahawks were swept in doubles.

Ana Pinto and Lola Garcia fell at #2 doubles 8-2 and Teodora Stanciu and Livia Toth fell at #3 doubles 8-4, giving Lindsey Wilson the 2-0 lead. #1 doubles proved to be exciting as Laura Ortega and Samantha Guy had match point before falling 9-7, giving the Blue Raiders the 3-0 lead going into singles play. 

When singles started Lindsey Wilson extended the advantage to 4-0 after Guy fell 6-1, 6-1. However, Keiser wouldn't go away quietly as Garcia tallied a 6-4, 6-1 win and Pinto earned a 6-2, 6-0 win to cut the Lindsey Wilson lead to 4-2. 

Ortega then fell 6-4, 6-1, giving Lindsey Wilson the clinching fifth point. Toth won 6-0, 1-0 (ret) earning the third point of the day, making it 5-3. Stanciu fell in the last match 6-4, 4-6, 1-0(7), giving the 6-3 victory to the Blue Raiders.

Head Coach Daniel Finn said," the biggest problem we faced today was coming out flat in doubles. It's really difficult to come back from a 0-3 hole after doubles. I thought in singles we battled really well but it was too much of a hill to climb today.  I believe we learned from it and will continue to get better from the match."

The Seahawks return to the court on March 6th in Orlando, Florida taking on Aquinas.
