NATCHITOCHES, La. - After nearly a two-week layover the Ladyjack tennis team picked up where they left off with a neutral-site, 7-0 win over the University of New Orleans at the Jack Fisher Complex on the Northwestern State University to run its win streak to three straight matches.
The Ladyjacks (4-1) took care of the Lady Privateers (2-3) with ease, not dropping a single set in any match on the afternoon. Roxana Enica ran her season record at No. 1 singles to 4-1 with a 6-4, 6-3 win over Cassandra Escobar. She also teamed up with Alina Shazkho in No. 1 doubles for an 8-2 win over Escobar and Kristina Martic.
