PULLMAN, Wash. – Junior Savanna Ly-Nguyen's three-set victory at No. 5 singles was the match-clincher as No. 47 Washington State upset No. 16 USC, 4-3, Sunday afternoon at the Simmelink Tennis Courts at Hollingbery Fieldhouse. It marked the second victory over USC in program history, the other coming on the road in 2018, and the first win against a Top 20 opponent since 2019, when the Cougars defeated No. 10 UCLA.
"What a match," said WSU head coach Lisa Hart. "I thought Savanna showed a great deal of composure after dropping the first set, sticking to her game plan and grinding out the win.
