Dankanych closes out weekend 3-0 in singles
CHARLESTON, W.Va. – Marshall women's tennis completed action on day three of Thunder in the Mountains with five singles matches against WVU on Sunday afternoon in Charleston, W.Va.
"The weekend was great once the weather cleared up," Marshall head coach John Mercer said at the conclusion of the tournament. "It was great to be outside and playing fairly close to home. Some of our boosters came and watched, which is always nice. We plan on having the event again next year. We want to build off this one and keep making it bigger and better."
Daniela Dankanych closed out the weekend 3-0 in singles in the number two position, dropping just one set in seven played.
Anna Smith and Jutte Van Hansewyck each fought hard in three-set losses on courts one and four, respectively.
SCORES
1 - Courteau (WVU) def. Smith (MARSHALL), 4-6, 6-2, 1-0 (4)
2 - Dankanych (MARSHALL) def. Jordan (WVU), 6-2, 3-0 (RET.)
3 - Caputo (WVU) def. Ballow (MARSHALL), 6-0, 6-2
