Women’s Tennis Falls to No. 1 Barry in Conference Opener

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The Embry-Riddle women's tennis team suffered its first Sunshine State Conference loss of the season on Saturday, falling to top-ranked Barry 7-0 at the Crotty Tennis Complex. Battling the three-time defending national champion and 20+ mile-per-hour winds, the Eagles fell to 2-1 overall and 0-1 league play. Barry remains undefeated at 5-0 on the year and 3-0 in the SSC.
 
Barry got on the board first when Xiyao Wang and Daniela Farfan topped Itxaso Blanco and Alexis Marshall 6-1 at the top doubles position. At the third spot, Barry's Maria Skyba and Julia Razafindranaly downed Julia Mautner and Sabrina Ehrenfort to clinch the doubles point.
 
The match at the No. 2 doubles spot saw Roberta Krvajica and Georgina Wood go up two breaks (5-2), but Jill Englemann and Qianxin Kong rallied to win the match 7-6 (7-5) to complete the doubles sweep.
 
Barry picked up two quick wins in singles at the No. 5 and No. 3 spots as Skyba topped Mautner 6-2, 6-2 and No. 41 Razafindranaly downed Ehrenfort 6-1, 6-0. The match at the fourth position saw No. 47 Farfan best Marshall 6-1, 6-0 to score the clinching point.
