Box Score

JACKSON –
\#Stephanie Brown\# won her eighth consecutive singles match to lead the Millsaps College women's tennis team in a 9-0 sweep of cross-town rival Belhaven University Wednesday afternoon.

Brown teamed up with \#Lauren Williams\# at No. 1 doubles where the duo won for the sixth time in their last seven matches by a score of 8-0.

The Majors continued their strong doubles play as the teams of \#Allison Zakaras\#/\#Breanna David\# at No. 2 and \#Brelynn David\#/\#Morgan Shell\# at No. 3 won 8-3 and 8-0, respectively.

With a 3-0 lead going into singles, Millsaps carried its momentum over and decisively won all six matches.

After the No. 1 through No. 3 players won in straight sets to clinch the match, the players at the No. 4 through No. 6 positions claimed victories in eight-game prosets to finish-off the sweep of the Blazers.

Millsaps gave-up only 16 games in all nine matches as it cruised to its fifth victory of the season, now 5-14 overall heading into the final regular season weekend.

“The strong doubles play set the tone for the match as all three teams played well and earned quality victories” head coach Jay Pacelli said.

The Majors will return to the court for three matches over the weekend facing Louisiana College, Meridian CC and Rust College.
