UC Davis Falls to Cal Poly at Home

Score: UC Davis 1, Cal Poly 6
Location: Davis, Calif. 
Records: UC Davis 5-8, Cal Poly 8-2 

The short story: In a tough home match, UC Davis women's tennis suffered a 6-1 loss to Cal Poly, with their only point coming from last week's Big West player of the week Mika Ikemori

COURTSIDE 

  • The Mustangs took the early lead, grabbing the doubles point.  

  • Sophomore Mika Ikemori won her singles match doubles match after two sets and a tiebreaker.   

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • The Aggies opened up the morning with doubles where Solia Valentine and Polina Marakhtanova finished first falling to their cal Poly opponents early. 

  • Next to finish was the pair of Claire Glerkin and Kaia Wolfe who also fell, losing the doubles point for the Aggies, scoring 1-0 Mustangs. 

  • The match of Daisy Maunupau and Ikemori went unfinished since the Mustangs had already clinched the doubles point. 

  • The first two Aggies to finish in singles were Daisy Maunupau and Maya Youssef who fell decisively to their opponents in two sets. 

  • Two more Aggies fall. Marakhtanova and freshman Penelope Wong would also lose to their opponents in two sets each. 

  • Graduate student Valentine would put up a great fight against her opponent taking her to a tiebreaker in the second set, but could not fend her off. 

  • Last to finish in singles was last week's Big West player of the week sophomore Mika Ikemori. Ikemori took her opponent to two sets and a tiebreaker before ultimately grabbing one point for the Aggies against Cal Poly.
