After two months of offseason practice, women’s tennis came back on Jan. 21 against Kansas and hosted their home opener a day later against Oral Roberts.
The team lost to Kansas (6-1). The lone win of the day came after freshman Kristina Kudryavtseva beat Kansas’ Jocelyn Massey in three sets (5-7; 6-0; 1-0). This is Kudryavtseva’s first win in her collegiate career.
Two other freshmen, Theodora Chantava and Marlene Förster, and one graduate transfer, Jessica Anzo, made their debuts in singles play against Kansas.
Anzo comes to Wichita State from Texas A&M, where she played four seasons and came out with a 30-10 record overall in singles.
