No. 14 Women's Tennis Wraps Regular Duel Season With Decisive 6-1 Win Over Arizona

April 19, 2008

TUCSON, Ariz. - The No. 14 ASU Women's Tennis Team came out to dominate in their final duel of the season as they tackled their in-state rival, Arizona 6-1 in Tucson Saturday afternoon. The win puts ASU's final regular-season duel record at 14-7 overall and 5-4 in the Pac-10.

In singles action the Sun Devils were nearly lights out as they rattled off five straight-set victories with Kelcy McKenna leading the pack with a quick 6-0, 6-1 win over Claire Rietsch in the two spot. Ashley Brown came in next with a 6-1, 6-0 win in the six slot over Claire Cox to give ASU a 3-0 lead.

Micaela Hein sealed it for the Sun Devils as she took a 6-3, 6-1 win in the four spot, but ASU wasn't done yet as Wendy Pilecka pulled a win in next, taking down Katie Orletsky at No. 5. Pulling in the last win for ASU on the day was Laila Abdala who topped Ariane Masschelein 6-0, 6-3 to give ASU their final point on the day.
