LAST TIME OUT
OU battled in Orlando, Fla. against the UCF Knights, clinching the match at 4-0 but playing out for a 5-2 victory.
The Sooners automatically took the win on court six due to UCF only having five players to compete. The Knights also didn't have No. 3 spot for doubles, so with OU having the 1-0 lead, they only needed to win one court to clinch the doubles point.
Starting off the match, No. 4 Ivana and
Carmen Corley took the top court, 6-3, against Levashova/Mattel, while No. 25
Layne Sleeth and
Alexandra Pisareva's play was halted at 5-3.
Going into singles, OU was up 2-0 on the Knights. Newcomer
Anchisa Chanta was first to finish as she took down Sophia Biolay on court four, 6-3, 6-4. To clinch the match, No. 14
