Women's Tennis Drops Road Pair This Weekend

ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. – The St. Bonaventure women's tennis team had its four-match winning streak snapped this weekend on the road as the Bonnies dropped a pair of matches to Atlantic 10 Conference foe Xavier on Friday and IPFW on Sunday.

Against IPFW (Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne), freshman Fatya Amiri and junior Amanda Pallikunnel earned victories in a 5-2 loss. Playing at No. 2 singles, Amiri disposed of Marcy Huck in straight sets, 6-0, 6-4. Pallikunnel picked up her win out of the No. 4 position in a three-set match, 3-6, 6-2, 6-0.

Unfortunately for the Brown and White, IPFW claimed the other four singles victories and all three doubles matches for the win.

On Friday against Xavier, Bonaventure failed to get anything going against the Musketeers, who were picked to finish third in the A-10 in preseason voting. Xavier swept all six singles matches and all three doubles matches en route to a 7-0 triumph.

The Bonnies return to action on Thursday, April 5, in a home conference match against La Salle.
