Women’s Tennis Falls to Keiser in Season Opener

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The Embry-Riddle women's tennis team suffered a loss in its first match of the season, falling to NAIA No. 2 Keiser (4-1) 7-0 on Wednesday.

Keiser took the lead early by winning all three doubles matches to earn the doubles point. Daniela Farfan and Emma Henriksen topped Georgina Wood and Alexis Marshall 6-3 on court two, and Sarah Schaerer and Lorene Foerste assured the Seahawks of the doubles point with a 6-4 win over Mafalda Soares and Roberta Krvajica on court three. Anais Gabriel and Alekzandra Frela secured the Keiser sweep in doubles with a 6-3 win over Jillian Hobbs and Sabrina Ehrenfort at the top spot.

NAIA No. 3 Farfan made it 2-0 with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Krvajica at No. 1 singles and Grela got the third point with a 6-1, 6-0 defeat of Marshall at the fourth position.

The clinching point came on court three where 19th-ranked Schaerer earned a 6-2, 6-1 win over Ehrenfort.

The Eagles forced three-setters at the second and fifth singles spots, but Keiser was able to pull out wins in both as second-ranked Gabriel held off Wood 2-6, 6-2, 6-4 and No. 27 Foerste edged Soares 4-6, 6-4, 10-5.

The Eagles will be back in action at 3 p.m. on Feb. 21, hosting Valdosta State at the Crotty Tennis Complex.
