BUCKHANNON, W.Va.– The WVWC tennis teams swept the Salem Tigers Friday afternoon. Both teams completed the season sweep of the Tigers, with the women winning 5-2 and the men winning 6-1.
In the women’s match, the Lady Bobcats clinched the doubles point with convincing 6-0 wins from the pairings of Sai Sakamoto and Cayley Symons and Madison Chen and Molly Hull. The women sealed the victory with singles wins from Alanis Alvarez, Symons, Rebecca Osborne, and Chen. The Tigers claimed singles wins at No.1 and 2 to round out the contest.
In the men’s first matchup, the two teams had a tight contest, with the Bobcats taking an eventual 4-3 win. However, the Bobcats got off to a fast start in this contest claiming the doubles point by winning on all three courts. WVWC utilized that momentum the rest of the way, winning five out of the six singles matches and defeating the Tigers 6-1.
