Kollarova Takes Singles TitleBINGHAMTON, NY - The University at Buffalo women's tennis team continued competition in its 2001-02 season last weekend at the New York State Women's Collegiate Championship. The two-day event was a no-repeat tournament.
"This match was played under very cold and windy conditions, however Michaela was able to overcome all distractions and focus on the game," said head coach Kathy Twist. " She showed great determination and shot selection. She played like a seasoned veteran." Freshman Sheri Ugowski (Orchard Park, NY/Orchard Park) was defeated by Legnon in the quarter-finals, 6-1, 7-5. Seniors Shani Amarasinghe (Patchogue, NY/Patchogue-Medford) and Jennifer Wong (Penfield, NY/Penfield) defeated Dowling's Dana Rich and Kristina Fliz in the first round of the doubles draw, 8-5. They advanced to the semifinals following a default and were defeated by Binghamton University's Amy Weissberg and Alexis Brill, 8-5. "Our seniors, Jen Wong and Shani Amarasinghe, also had a great tournament," said Twist. "They had a tough first round match against Dowling. They had better strategy and communication than their opponents and this made the difference in the match." The Bulls will be playing Canisius at 3 pm on Wednesday, October 10 at the UB Tennis Center. |
