Mary Baldwin's men's and women's tennis teams both suffered 7-0 shutout losses Saturday despite three of the six women's singles matches going to split-set tiebreakers.
In the women's match,
Gabrielle Wyatt and
Lauren Byrnes each lost their first set, then battled back in the second set to force tiebreakers. Wyatt fell in the #4 tiebreaker 10-1 while Byrnes went to the wire in a 10-8 tiebreaker in the #5 singles match. At #6,
Hana Lagana jumped out to a first-set lead, then went to a tiebreaker before losing by a 10-7 margin.
In the men's match, MBU's top three players played strong matches but lost in straight sets. #1
Eric Leyton lost a 6-1, 7-5 battle while #2
Elian Jiminez suffered a 6-3, 6-2 loss and
Brandon Dewald fell by a 6-1, 6-3 margin.
MBU (2-9 women, 3-8 men) returns to action Tuesday with a non-conference match at Bridgewater.
