SAN MARCOS – The UT Arlington women's tennis team overcame a doubles point loss to defeat in-state rival Texas State on Wednesday afternoon, 4-2, in San Marcos. The Mavericks move to 12-1 on the season and 1-0 in the Sun Belt Conference.
Â
The Bobcats jumped out early in the match, taking a 1-0 advantage in a battle-tested doubles contention. Carla Pons and Bruna Casasampere fell 6-3 on court three to put Texas State one match away from clinching.Â
Â
Lines one and two both stood at 6-6, with either team able to put their team ahead. Mae McCutcheon and Jadeh Chan took it upon themselves to end the doubles matches, winning the tiebreaker 8-6 over the Liz Chileno and Ana Paula Jimenez to clinch the doubles points for Texas State.
Â
The Mavericks responded in singles play as Sarina Reinertsen swept her opponent on line five 6-0, 6-0 to remain undefeated on the season.
Â
The Bobcats would bounce back with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Momoka Horiguchi on court one, but that would be the last point of the day for Texas State.
Â
Ana Paula Jimenez evened the match with a 6-2, 6-2 win on court six before Tara Gorinsek defeated Sofia Fortuno 6-1, 7-5 on court four to put UTA one point away from a team victory.
Â
Liz Chileno hunkered down and clinched the match for the Mavericks in straight sets, but not without a fight, winning 7-5, 6-4 on court two as the Mavericks won 4-2.
