Bears at 6-0 for first time since 2016
THE RUNDOWN
WACO, Texas. – The Baylor women's tennis team moved to 6-0 on the season with a 6-1 win over Nebraska (4-1) Saturday at Hawkins Indoor Tennis Center.
The Bears took the doubles point before winning five of six matches on the singles court for their first 6-0 start since 2016.
On the doubles court, it was knotted up at a match apiece before Mel Krywoj and Alicia Herrero Linana teamed up on the No. 1 court to win a tough, 7-6 (8-6) match over Kristina Novak and Claire Refeis.
Baylor won singles matches on the No. 2-5 courts, respectively.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Jessica Hinojosa won her 45th career match in dual-match play on the No. 5 court in three sets.
• Livia Kraus made her dual-match debut in 2020, winning on the No, 3 court in two sets.
STAT OF THE MATCH
6 – Angie Shakhraichuk won on the No. 6 court in two sets over Nebraska's Anna Baranovski. The No. 6 spot has been a bright one for Baylor thus far with a 6-0 start from that court this season.
THEY SAID IT
BU Head Coach Joey Scrivano …
"It's great to see her and Mel [Krywoj] back out there. Livia [Kraus] has gone through a pretty extensive rehab to get back to the point where she can compete. She looked great out there."
"I think right now we have a unique team. Every player could make the argument that they're the No. 1 player on the team, and we could make a counterargument that they're the No. 6. It's fun to have depth. It's a unique situation when you have nine really good players, and you have options. We're going to enjoy every second of it."
WHAT'S NEXT
Baylor postponed Sunday's match with TCU, so the Bears next play Feb. 16 vs. Illinois at home.
