URBANDALE, Iowa – Illinois State wrapped up its opening weekend of spring tennis Saturday in Urbadale, Iowa, as host Iowa State proved to be too much for the Redbirds and handed them their first loss of the spring, 7-0.
The day began with a pair of extremely close doubles matches that ultimately decided the doubles point. Both the No. 1 doubles team of Tijana Zlatanovic and Tara Damnjanovic and the No. 2 team of Maria Potsi and Penelope Abreu took their matches to tiebreakers, but the Cyclones ultimately pulled out the close wins to secure the first point of the day.
