WICHITA FALLS, Texas – The 18th-ranked Midwestern State Mustangs won 20 matches in a season for the first time since 2005 as they hit the magic number with a 9-0 shutout of Texas-Permian Basin Saturday at the MSU Tennis Center.
 
MSU (20-3) also established a school record for the longest winning streak in the NCAA era with its 11th straight win.  UTPB (10-12) lost its fourth straight match.
 
"It was something we really wanted," said MSU's Kayla Casey of the 20-win season.  "We were really prepared this year to pull it off.  We knew we could do it."
 
"A 20-win season is special," said Mustangs coach Scott Linn.  "It's a bench mark that means you're a great team."
 
The lead tandem of Casey and Taylor Coffman set the pace for Midwestern against the Falcons.
 
The nationally 20th ranked doubles pair won 8-5 at No. 1 against Lisa Roslanova/Olivia Baltazar.
