WACO, Texas - On senior day, Baylor was able to combine for a clean sweep, celebrating its decorated group of seniors with a 7-0 win over Iowa State on Sunday at the Baylor Tennis Center.
Baylor's trio of seniors, Karolina Filipiak, Taylor Ormond and Jelena Stanivuk, led their team to a dominating win over the Cyclones. Filipiak and Stanivuk each won a singles and doubles match, while Ormond won her only match of the day in doubles. As a group, the senior class moved their overall record against Big 12 opponents to 48-1 with the win over Iowa State.
In singles, the 103rd-ranked Stanivuk shut down her opponent from the opening serve with a 6-0 first set. The senior then earned two break points and was consistent on serve for a 6-2 second set and her sixth consecutive win. Stanivuk moved her singles record to an overall mark of 18-2.
Filipiak, ranked 124th, had little trouble with her opponent on Court 5. Taking on Marie Chartier, Filipiak easily won the first set 6-2, then got a late break-point in the second set to close out a 6-4 set. The win was her ninth in a row and added to her team-leading 26-win total.
Baylor's Sona Novakova and Diana Nakic each cruised to victories, combined to lost just six games in their four sets. Novakova, ranked 14th, beat Erin Karonis 6-2, 6-0, while the 38th-ranked Nakic took down Tessa Lang easily, 6-2, 6-2, for her 10th consecutive win.
On Court 2, Baylor's 36th-ranked Nina Secerbegovic took a 15-match win streak into her match with Maria Macedo and was able to hold off the Cyclone. Secerbegovic won the first set 6-1, then held off a charge by Macedo to win the second set 6-3.
The Lady Bears swept the doubles courts, winning the point for the third match in a row. Baylor's set of juniors, Novakova and Nakic, continued their solid stretch in doubles play with an 8-4 win over ISU's on Court 3. On Court 1, a steady match from Secerbegovic and Filipiak clinched the point with a win over the Cyclone's Macedo and Lang.
On doubles Court 2, Baylor's senior duo of Ormond and Stanivuk completed the clean sweep with an 8-6 win. The pair defeated ISU's Simona Cacciuttulo and Karonis.
