Bulls Split Final Road Weekend

The University at Buffalo women’s tennis team hit the road for one final time before wrapping the season up with three straight home matches as the Bulls split their two weekend matches. UB had it’s nine-match winning streak stopped on Friday at Miami, falling to the RedHawks, 6-1, but then the Bulls came back to defeat Ball State, 6-1, on Saturday afternoon. UB is now 11-4 on the season and 4-1 in the MAC.

UB’s number one ranked doubles team of Denise Harijanto and Diana Popescu won both doubles matches on the weekend as they came back from an early 3-0 hole against Miami to win 9-7 over Megan Martzlof and Stephanie Danesis. The duo won much easier against Ball State on Saturday as they defeated Georgina Thomson and Dena Boulieris, 8-2. Both Harijanto and Popescu won their singles matches as well against the Cardinals, including a 6-0, 6-0 blanking by Harijanto at first singles. Senior Smaranda Stan was the lone UB player on the weekend to win both of her singles matches. Against Miami, she defeated Martzlof, 6-2, 7-6 (1) and against the Cardinals she dominated Kylee Johnson, 6-0, 6-1.

Bulls Return To Western New York...

After playing 13 of their first 15 matches away from home, the Bulls will host all three of their final regular season matches. UB is a perfect 2-0 at home this season, playing both of their matches at the Village Glen Tennis Center. UB had its home opener way back on Feb. 7 when it swept Manhattan, 7-0. The Bulls then did not return home until Mar. 28 when they defeated Northern Illinois, 6-1.
