Tennis splits opening day in Florida

The Winona State University Tennis team opened their spring break matches by defeating Webber International University 6-1, before falling 5-2 to Ave Maria University later in the afternoon.
With the split, the Warriors now move to 7-3 on the year.

In the opening match against Webber International, the Warriors scored the doubles point with wins from the duos of Rachel Kelly and Kendra Kappes (7-6) and Rina Niehoff and Tayla Card (6-1).

The Warriors managed to get the win in all but the #1 singles position. Kaisey Skibba (4-6, 6-2, 10-5) won at #2 singles, Rachel Kelly (3-6, 6-0, 11-9) won at #3 singles, Tayla Card (7-5, 7-6) took the victory  at #4 singles, Rina Niehoff (6-0, 6-0) coasted to victory at #5 singles, and Audrey Delich (6-0, 6-0) won her first ever match at #6 singles.

The second match against Ave Maria started off well, with the duos of Kendra Kappes and Rachel Kelly (6-3) and Tayla Card and Rina Niehoff (6-4) earning the doubles point for the Warriors.

Unfortunately, it was a tough go for the Warriors in singles, as Rachel Kelly (6-4, 3-6, 10-7) was the only Warrior to nab a win. Kelly has been phenomenal all year, only losing one singles match at the #4 spot and going undefeated in doubles play so far.

The Warriors are back at it again tomorrow as they face Dickinson at 8 a.m. and Lee at 7 p.m. eastern time.
