Coastal Carolina women’s tennis wins fifth-straight over the Eagles

CONWAY, S.C. – The Coastal Carolina women's tennis team swept the Georgia Southern Eagles 4-0 on Saturday afternoon at the Stevens Tennis Complex in the two teams' Sun Belt Conference opener. The Chanticleers improved to 5-2 overall and 1-0 in the Sun Belt Conference while the Eagles 4-5 and to 0-1 in the SBC.

The win is the eighth-straight win for the Chants at the Stevens Tennis Complex dating back to the shortened 2020 season and the fifth consecutive win over Georgia Southern.

The Chanticleers picked up the doubles point as the tandem of Victoire De Samucewicz and Kristyna Jurkova swept the duo Hannah Daniel and Nadja Meier 6-0 at the number two position while the number one team of Somer Dalla-Bona and Jessie Mount won 6-1 over the Eagles' Charlotte Van Diemen and Sophie Wagemaker. The number three position went unfinished as CCU's Jesse Hollins and Mathilde Tranberg trailed 5-4 to Elizabeth Goines and Sonja Keranen when the doubles point was won.

In singles play, Hollins defeated Goines 6-2, 6-4 at the number six position to stake the Chanticleers to a 2-0 lead. Sophomore Valentina Urelli, playing in the fifth spot, put Coastal up 3-0 with the 6-2, 6-3 victory over Paula Hijos. The Chants' number one position closed out the match as Dalla-Bona defeated Meier in three sets 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 after dropping the opening set.

The final matches went unfinished once Coastal Carolina earned the four points for the victory. At the number two position, Tranberg trailed Van Diemen 2-6, 6-1, 1-2 at the time the match was decided. Likewise, at the third spot, Jurkova was trailing in the third set 6-3, 5-7, 0-1 to Wagemaker while De Samucewicz trailed Mila Hartig 4-6, 4-5 at the number four position.
