Bulls Blank Golden Griffins, 7-0

UB women's tennis team eclipses last year's victory total with win over Canisius

BUFFALO, NY - The University at Buffalo women's tennis team swept Saturday's match at the UB Tennis Center over crosstown rival Canisius College by a 7-0 score to give the Bulls a 3-1 record thus far in the 2002-03 season and better last season's mark of two victories.

Strong cross winds wreaked havoc on the players all morning but did not deter the Bulls who did not drop a set to the visiting Golden Griffins and allowed Canisius just six singles game victories. The Bulls were also playing without top seed Karen Maynard (Poughkeepsie, NY/Spackenkill), who sat out the match due to a deltoid strain in her right arm. With Maynard out, the Bulls moved each player up a spot to complete the lineup.

Three Bulls singles victories were by identical 6-0, 6-0 whitewashings. Freshman Helen Lynch (Hobart, Tasmania/St. Michael's Collegiate) at number three, junior Lisa Wittman (Cheektowaga, NY/Cheektowaga) at number four and sophomore Wendy Rose (Eden, NY/Eden) at number five scored "double-bagel" victories on the day. Number two player Michelle Kollarova (Bratislava, Slovak Republic/Sport Gymnasium) and number six Sheri Ugowski (Orchard Park, NY/Orchard Park) picked up 6-1, 6-0 victories in their respective matches. Freshman Kristen Ortman (Amherst, NY/Amherst) registered a 6-1, 6-3 win at number one to complete the singles sweep. UB also swept the doubles competition to earn the one doubles point.
