Women’s Tennis Defeats Troy, Earns Tenth Victory on Saturday

Troy, Ala.- Continuing conference play with a weekend doubleheader of outings on the road, the Georgia State women's tennis team posted a victory, 4-2, over Troy on Saturday. Sofya Golubovskaya clinched the match for the Panthers on court No. 2 as GSU collected its tenth victory on the season and moved to 10-4.

Saturday saw the Panthers drop in doubles and fall behind early entering the match. GSU regained its momentum in singles competition with three straight wins on courts No. 5, No. 3 and No. 1.

Angel Carney continued her impressive streak of wins at the No. 5 singles position with yet another victory, 6-4, 6-1. The win marks Carney's eleventh consecutive victory.

Andreea Stanescu accounted for another victory, 6-4, 6-4, on singles court No. 3 to earn the Panthers a second point. The senior has won nine of 10 matches competing in the second and third positions for GSU.

Eva Chivu posted a three set win in the top court position, 6-3, 2-6, 6-4, as the Panthers extended the lead to 3-1. Troy responded by claiming court No. 4 in an effort to keep the match within reach, but not before Golubovskaya's three set victory, 4-6, 7-5, 6-4, in the second position clinched the match point for GSU and earned the team a third conference win.

GSU travels to Mobile, Ala. in a quick turnaround to face South Alabama on Sunday, March 20. The match will be played at Bruce David Lubel Memorial Tennis Courts at 10 a.m. ET.

More information on live scoring will be posted to the team's social media accounts and on the web leading up to the matches. Follow Georgia State women's tennis on Twitter (@GSUWTennis) and Instagram (@GSUWomensTennis) for news and updates throughout the season.
