Stars Earn First Win of Season

Forest Park, IL – The Dominican University women's tennis team earned their first win of the season, defeating Alverno College 8-1 on Saturday afternoon.

The Stars took 2-of-3 doubles points as the top-flight pairing of Sharon Neiza and Julia Hochstatter doubled up their counterparts 8-4. It was a slightly closer match at two doubles but Stephanie Anhalt and Jacqueline Candelas closed out an 8-6 victory to give Dominican a 2-1 lead heading to singles play.

Anhalt earned the first singles point, defeating her 3-singles opponent 6-4, 6-3 before Hochstatter won her 2-singles flight in straight sets, (6-1, 6-1) to pull her team to within one point of clinching the match.

At 4-singles, Candelas made quick work of her opponent in the first set (6-0) before battling to earn a 7-5 win in the second set and clinch the win for Dominican.

Neiza, Cali Carlson, and Alyssa Fahner would also take their respective singles matches in straight sets as the Stars cruised to an 8-1 victory.

The women's tennis team returns to the courts tomorrow when they host Lakeland University.
