Argonauts Drop Competitive Match to No. 12 Lynn on the Road

Women's Tennis will be back in action tomorrow

VALDOSTA, Ga.- On their first match of the weekend, the West Florida Women's Tennis Team couldn't pull it together to take down Sunshine State Conference powerhouse Lynn 4-1. The Argonauts drop to 8-6 on the season.

After dropping two of the three doubles points, the Argonauts were unable to keep their winning streak alive.

Nathalia Mossambani and Karolina Silwanowicz fought hard as the No. 1 pairing, but couldn't get the point for the Argonauts falling 3-6. Sara Yigin and Mayumi Saguchi teamed up from the No. 2 position, but fell as well 4-6.

Irene Recuenco and Raissa Wagner pulled out a victory for the Argonauts from the No. 3 position, winning their match 6-3.

Singles play saw the Argonauts dropping three matches while two went unfinished due to the Fighting Knights securing the point.

Recuenco won her match in two sets 6-3, 6-1 from the No. 2 position. She would be the only Argonaut to score points in singles play. Yigin and Wagner's match went unfinished from the No. 1 and No. 5 position due to Lynn winning the match. Yigin fell 4-6, 3-5 while Wagner dropped her match 6-4, 4-6.

Saguchi dropped a competitive match 3-6, 4-6 from the No. 3 position to try to get momentum for the Argonauts. Mossambani had to stop playing due to injury, dropping her match 2-5, 4-1 from the No. 4 position.

Silwanowicz was unable to get the Argonauts back on track as she fell 5-7, 3-6 from the No. 6 position.

"I felt the girls competed very well. We played a good match against a tough Lynn team and tomorrow will be no different as we have a very tough match against Columbus State," said head coach Derrick Racine.

On Sunday, play begins bright and early with West Florida squaring off against Columbus State at 11 AM (ET) in Columbus, Ga.
