WTEN | Gaels Travel to Pacific Northwest to Face Oregon, Fresno State

Saint Mary's will look to pick up their first win of the season as they hit the road this weekend.

MORAGA, Calif. — Saint Mary's will look to get their first win of the season as they travel to the Pacific Northwest this weekend for a pair of contests against the Ducks and Fresno State on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 1 and 2.

ABOUT THE GAELS
SMC began their spring season last weekend as they competed against No. 1 Stanford and SMU in the ITA Kick Off, but ultimately came up short 0-4 on both days. In singles play against the Cardinal, Mariia Kozyreva led their top singles player 6-3, 4-3, but the match went unfinished. During the contest versus SMU, Kozyreva and Aubane Ville led their opponents 5-4, but the match also went unfinished.

Ville has proven to lead the Gaels' efforts as she picked up a 6-1, 6-3 win against Jane Ellis from Fresno State during the Cal Winter Invite. On doubles courts, the sophomore also defeated Cal Poly duo Worsnop/Ackerman 6-3 with her partner Clementine Clement.

ABOUT THE DUCKS
Oregon (1-2) is coming off a 0-4, 2-4 loss against Denver and UNLV during their ITA Kick Off last weekend. Freshman Allison Mulville led the Ducks as she defeated her UNLV competitor in straight sets (6-4, 7-5). Daniela Nasser gave Oregon their second singles win of the day as she won 7-6, 6-1 against UNLV Anna Bogoslavets. The win for the senior was her 58th win of her career, which moves her onto Oregon's career wins list in a tie for 10th place.

ABOUT THE BULLDOGS
Fresno State (2-0) is on a two-game win streak as they defeated Stanislaus State, 6-1, and Pacific, 4-2, last weekend. The 'Dogs overcame their opponents as they won all of their singles and doubles matches against Stanislaus State. Against Pacific, Fresno State picked up five wins in singles play, but dropped two of their doubles matches while one went unfinished. Freshman Jennifer Timotin has led the Bulldogs so far this season as she currently holds a 9-8 overall record.
