Zips Sweep LIU Brooklyn to Win Fifth Straight Match

QUEENS, N.Y. – The Akron women's tennis team won its fifth straight match with a 7-0 victory over Long Island University-Brooklyn on Friday afternoon at the USTA Tennis Center.

The Zips improve to 6-2 on the season with the win, while LIU Brooklyn drops to 2-2.

"I was most impressed with our energy throughout the entire match. We played well in doubles and that focus and energy continued in the singles portion of the match, which is extremely important. LIU Brooklyn's record is not a good indicator of the level of talent on their team so I am very impressed with how we pushed through each match," said head coach Brandon Padgett.
