Women's Tennis Cruises Into NWC Tournament Final

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - The top-seeded Whitman College women's tennis team cruised in doubles and did the same in singles, handily beating fourth-seeded Whitworth 4-0 in the first semifinal of the NWC Women's Tennis Tournament on Friday morning at the Whitman Tennis Courts.

The Blues earned hosting rights after winning their third straight-regular season title and are now one win away from doing the same in the NWC Tournament. Whitman will face the winner of Pacific and George Fox in the championship match held Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m.

The match was quick with both doubles and singles playing to the clinching point. The Blues breezed past the opposition on the No. 2 and No. 3 courts to win the doubles point. Nana Vang and Arianna Castellanos won 6-0 at the two before Ilina Jha and Sascha Wells clinched the point at the three with a 6-1 victory over the Pirate tandem of Audrey Judson and Olivia Corbett.

Whitman clinched the victory with wins on the No. 3, No. 4 and No. 6 singles courts. Wells opened a 6-0, 6-1 win at the six, and Vang and Jin Yu closed the door with sweeps at the three and four, respectively.
