Women's Tennis Rolls to 7-0 Defeat of CSUN
February 16, 2023 | Women's Tennis
LOS ANGELES โ Playing at Los Angeles Tennis Center for the first time since its dual-match opener, the UCLA women's tennis team rolled to a 7-0 victory against CSUN.
Anne-Christine Lutkemeyer turned in the first clinching win of her career, while Ava Catanzarite, Kimmi Hance, Vanessa Ong, Sasha Vagramov and Elise Wagle each prevailed twice for the Bruins (3-2). The Matadors (3-2) sent one match to a third set, but Vagramov triumphed in a 10-point tiebreaker.
Catanzarite and Fangran Tian made a statement out of the gate on the second doubles court, dropping just one game against Sasha Turchak and Yuliia Zhytelna. The victory marked the third in a row for the pair. An early break of serve put Ong and Vagramov in a 0-3 hole versus Vitoria Solis and Cindy Ung on Court 3, but the Bruins answered in a big way, securing six of the final seven games played to clinch the doubles point. The Court 1 matchup also went the distance, with No. 11 Hance and Wagle outlasting Jolene Coetzee and Angela Ho by a 6-4 score.
UCLA secured each of the initial singles sets, with No. 82 Hance and Wagle each not dropping a game. Those also proved to be the first to finish, as Hance dispatched of Coetzee 6-0, 6-1 on Court 1 and Wagle beat Tallia Harper by a 6-0, 6-2 score on 6. The top-court singles appearance was the first of Hance's career. Wagle has now won six straight singles contests going back to tournament play.
