Sometimes, the best thing you can do is not screw up.
Sophomore Kenya Williams used that strategy in her match-clinching victory for Drake Women’s Tennis on Saturday over Colorado State University.
All three sets in Williams’ match went to 12 games. In the third set, she was serving for match point. She played one volley after the serve before her opponent returned the ball into the net, improving the Bulldogs’ record to 4-3 on the season.
“(I was) making sure that I didn’t give (my opponent) any errors, making her try to earn the game,” Williams said.
