#Pac12Tennis: Ducks Drop Conference Opener

TEMPE, Ariz. – Oregon women battled and nearly pulled out the doubles point before dropping the first three decisions of singles play in a 4-0 loss at No. 24 Arizona State Friday in the Pac-12 opener for both teams. The loss snapped the Ducks’ six-match winning streak and dropped them to 6-2 (0-1 Pac-12) on the season.

 

How it Happened: For the first time all year, the Ducks were unable to get on the board first with a win in pairs play, dropping a tightly contested doubles point. Lillian Mould and Janice Tjen remained unbeaten on the season as a duo, winning 6-4 at No. 2 after fighting back from being down 3-0.

 

Rifanty Kahfiani and Uxia Martinez Moral jumped out to a 3-0 lead over the 50th-ranked doubles pair nationally at the No. 1 spot, but the ASU pair of Lauryn John-Baptiste and Ilze Hattingh responded with three straight set victories to tie it up at three. From there, the two sides went back-and-forth until the Sun Devils tied it up at six, then took the tiebreaker for a 7-6 win to clinch the doubles point.

 

The Ducks fell in straight sets at Nos. 4-6 in singles play to give Arizona State the match. Martinez Moral lost in singles for the first time this year, falling 6-2, 6-1 at No. 4 while Julia Eshet also lost 6-2, 6-1 and Allison Mulville dropped her match, 6-1, 6-1. Oregon also trailed in the remaining three matches with Kahfiani’s being the most tightly contested at 6-4, 2-2 when the match was clinched.
