Columbus, Ohio – The Ohio State women’s tennis team concluded its non-conference schedule with a 5-2 loss to UNLV Tuesday at the Fertitta Tennis Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Playing their seventh-consecutive road match, the No. 52 Buckeyes (6-7, 1-0 Big Ten) lost their third in a row, while the No. 51 Lady Rebels (10-3) won for the sixth-consecutive time during their 10-match home stand.
The Buckeyes got the match started with two victories in doubles play to earn the doubles point for the eighth time this season. Ohio State duo Erica Fisk (Indianapolis, Ind./Pike) and Jackie Leskovar (Sr., Cambridge, Ontario/N.C. State) beat Anne Claire Ortiz-Luis and Agniezska Abram, 8-5, at No. 1, while Meaghan Colville (Sr., Toronto, Ontario/Western Michigan) and Lindsay Williams (Sr., Beverly Hills, Mich./Birmingham Grove) topped Lady Rebels Gyorgyi Zsiros and Claire Smith at No. 2, 9-7.
