CINCINNATI, Ohio – The Wichita State women's tennis team finished out a successful road weekend with a 5-2 victory over Xavier on Saturday.
24 hours after sweeping American Athletic Conference rival Cincinnati, the Shockers (11-8) made short work of Xavier with an impressive doubles point and wins at Nos. 3-6 singles.
"We played great doubles this weekend," Foster said. "More importantly, we pressed the reset button immediately in singles and expected a tough fight on every court. We played with great composure. Every single player contributes to these team wins, regardless of their individual result."
