SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The first leg of the final conference road trip set the team up for a challenge the Rams have encountered multiple times this year – a dual with a ranked opponent.
Â
Against Colorado State's women's tennis team, San Diego State -- even shorthanded -- lived up to it's No. 60 billing with a 4-1 victory on Friday afternoon at the Aztec Tennis Center. Colorado State slips to 8-10 overall on the season (with half of those losses coming to teams ranked by the ITA), 4-4 in Mountain West play. The Aztecs, challenging for the regular-season title, sit at 12-5, 6-1.
Â
The Aztecs had just five players on hand, but two of them are ranked in the top 100 as singles players. They did not field a No. 3 doubles team, nor a No. 6 singles player, but swept through all the competition on the courts in straight sets. The Rams were leading in the other two matches which were abandoned at the finish, one of them at the top line. Zara Lennon was up on No. 96
Yasmine Kabbaj, 6-3, 3-5; at No. 5, Viktoryia Zhadzinskaya led Zoe Olmos 6-3, 3-3.
Â
Colorado State concludes its final regular season road swing with a Sunday match against UNLV, beginning at 11 a.m. MT.
