CLEVELAND – The University of Akron women's tennis team captured a win in singles on the final day of competition at its own Akron Shootout on Sunday at Cleveland State's Medical Mutual Tennis Pavilion.
In morning action, the Zips fell in doubles to Cleveland State, 2-1. Sophomore Claudia Cecilia Rosas Garcia (Guadalajara, Mexico) and freshman Tanja Derowski (Bruckmuehl, Germany) claimed UA's only win at No. 2, defeating Kate Avram and Gaby Schoenberg, 7-6.
In afternoon singles, Akron concluded tourney play with a 4-2 win over Youngstown State.
At No. 1, junior Miruna Vasilescu (Ulm, Germany) beat Tamara Teufl, 6-4, 6-3.
At No. 2, Rosas defeated Imaan Hassim, 6-2, 2-6, 1-0.
At No. 3, senior Rita Pedroso (Porto, Portugal) beat Lucia Zagar in straight sets, 6-2, 6-3.
At No. 5, sophomore Enya Forgaci (Boca Raton, Fla.) defeated Elvira Esteo, 2-6, 6-3, 1-0.
"It was a fun, competitive way to finish our fall match schedule," said interim head coach Brian Peters. "It was nice to see Miruna win all three matches at No. 1 to help lead our team. Ceci played amazing tennis this weekend, winning all her singles and doubles. She impresses me more every day. Tanja, along with the rest, continues to improve tremendously. We are excited to train hard and get ready for dual matches in January. Go Zips!"
The Akron Shootout was the final event for the fall. Akron resumes action in January with Army on Saturday, Jan. 18, at 2 p.m. at the LaTuchie Tennis Center.
