Illinois State downed UAB, 5-2, Friday in Des Moines, Iowa to record its first win on the road this season.
"Huge team win today, we lost the doubles point, so it made the singles a lot more important and the guys stepped up and competed so hard," head coach Mark Klysner said. "But we want to keep this going, so we will rest up tonight and battle again tomorrow against a tough GW squad."
UAB topped Illinois State in the No. 1 and No. 3 spots of doubles for the point.
