Norse Women's Tennis Sweeps Eastern Illinois

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Northern Kentucky University Women's Tennis bounced back with their first sweep of the season on Wednesday, a 7-0 victory over Eastern Illinois. 

EIU only had four active players in the match, meaning NKU already had a 1-0 advantage by default in the doubles competition. Fisk and Serrano won their set 6-1 to secure the point. 

In the singles competition, Fisk and Hernandez both earned set sweeps, while Gneidina and Serrano narrowly beat out their opponents in three sets.
