MATCH TWO: Covenant 6, Northwestern (Minn.) 1

The Scots put forth a dominant showing in match two, getting a 6-1 win in their second match of the day.

At No. 2 doubles, Katie Cummings and Christina English defeated Ross and Clarke 6-2, and then Landry McKinney and Ora Hall beat Hyttsten and Cimenski 6-2 to sweep the doubles slate.

The Scots cruised from there though, as McKinney came through in a comeback effort, 1-6, 6-0, 10-6 over Ross, followed by Cummings' 6-3, 6-3 victory at No. 4 singles Hyttsten. English subsequently took care of business at No. 5 singles, winning 6-2, 6-4, and then Hall rounded out the slate with a 6-1, 6-0 win at No. 6 singles. 

MATCH ONE: Anderson (Ind.) 4, Covenant 3

Covenant could not come back from an early deficit, falling 4-3 in match one to Anderson.

The Ravens got on the board first by securing the doubles point, as No. 2 team Katie Cummings and Christina English fell to Cunningham and Oberle, 7-6, and No. 3 tandem Ora Hall and Landry McKinney were defeated 7-5 by Hosier and Patterson. Maisie Tanchanpongs and Estee Verdery did get a win at No. 1, over Frantz and Torretn, however.

Tanchanpongs then took care of her opponent, Frantz, 7-5, 6-2, to knot things up at one apiece, but Verdery was defeated 6-2, 6-2 by Torrent at No. 2, McKinney 6-1, 6-2 by Hosier at No. 3, and Cummings 6-0, 6-4 by Cunningham to clinch the match for Anderson.

That did not deter English and Hall, though, as English dominated Maiden 6-2, 6-2, at No. 5 singles and Hall battled valiantly with Oberle, emerging victorious 7-5, 6-2.
