Spartans Lose 4-0 To UNLV

San Jose, Calif.----- The San Jose State University women's tennis team closed out its 2019 home schedule with a 4-0 loss to UNLV in a Mountain West conference match.
 
            The Spartans (7-7, 0-2 MW) only won one complete set in the two doubles and three singles matches played to a conclusion. Senior Miyo Koabyashi, who was honored in Senior Day pre-match festivities, won her opening set against Izumi Asano, 6-2, but lost the second set, 4-6, when the Rebels (13-6, 3-0 MW) clinched the match.
 
            San Jose State head coach Chad Skorupka shook up the doubles lineup with Mathilda Vidgren seeing her first doubles action since March 8. Vidgren teamed with Alba Pedrero Gailindo, but their match was in the balance, trailing 5-4, when UNLV won at #1 and #2 doubles to take a 1-0 lead on the scoreboard going into the six singles matches.
 
            The Rebels won at #3, #4 and #5 singles to claim their fourth consecutive win.
 
            San Jose State looks to bounce back Friday, April 12, at Fresno State, in a 3:00 p.m. Mountain West match.
