Women's Tennis earns 4th straight win
MOBILE, Ala. - Spring Hill College earned its fourth straight win Saturday, knocking off Blue Mountain College, 4-3, in a non-conference match at The University of Mobile.
Spring Hill (9-12) started the match by sweeping all three doubles matches. Rebecca Pearlman and Macinley Chastain were first off, winning 6-1 over Piper Johnson and Emily Standardard at No. 3. Jamie Martin and Mary Grace Sullivan teamed for a 7-5 win over Mariana Alvarez and Tatiana Quinonez at No. 1 and Madison Artigues and Mary Roane held off Blue Mountain's Attie Finley and Mattie Mills, 7-6, at No. 2.
The Toppers (5-8) struck first in singles, as Alavarez got past Martin, 6-0, 6-4, at No. 1 to even the match. Blue Mountain won the next two matches as well - with Mills beating Roane, 6-2, 6-2 at No. 4 and Johnson knocking off Artigues, 6-2, 6-1 at No. 3 - to take a 3-1 lead.
However, Spring Hill rebounded with wins at No. 2 (Sullivan beat Quinonez, 6-2, 6-4) and No. 6 (Chastain over Sarah Hill, 6-2, 6-1) to level the match, 3-3. That left the outcome to the No. 5 match between Pearlman and Emilee Seagraves. After a hard-fought battle, Pearlman emerged with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 victory to hand the 4-3 team win to the Badgers.
The Badgers are back in action Sunday, taking on Loyola (La.) at Treasure Oak Country Club in Ocean Springs, Miss. First serve is scheduled for 11 a.m.
