SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The University of San Diego captured five singles matches en route to a 6-0 victory over Washington State Wednesday afternoon at the Hogan Center.
San Diego (13-3) captured the opening doubles points with wins on courts 1 and 3. On Court 2, WSU's Michaela Bayerlova and Yang Lee were leading 5-4 when play was stopped after the Toreros had clinched the doubles point.
In singles action, the Toreros posted straight-set wins in three matches to clinch the team victory. At No. 1, WSU's (13-15) Bayerlova forced a third set but could not capitalize in a 6-4, 3-6, 6-1 loss against No. 57 Solymar Colling. WSU's Pang Jittakoat at No. 4 captured a first-set tiebreaker against Abigail Desiatnikov before Desiatnikov rallied to take the match, 6-7 (4), 6-0, 1-0 (10-4).
WSU's Hikaru Sato was coming back at No. 2 after dropping a close first set, the Cougar junior was up 5-4 in the second when her match was stopped.
The Cougars are next in action Friday when they begin play at the 2021 Pac-12 Championship against Colorado. Match time is set for 10 a.m. in San Diego.
