Midwestern State (1-1) takes on Incarnate Word Friday afternoon in San Antonio. First serve is set for 3 p.m.
 
SMU swept through doubles to take a 1-0 lead in the match as doubles counts as a single point in Division I play.

Southern Methodist completed the sweep at No. 1 doubles as Vaszilisza Bulgakova and Dasha Sharapova upended Kayla Casey and Taylor Coffman, 6-4.
 
Bulgakova extended SMU's lead to 2-1 coming off the singles' court first with a 6-0, 6-3 win over Midwestern State's Lindsay Nochowicz 6-0, 6-3 at No. 4.
 
Midwestern evened the match with Coffman coming away with a 6-1, 6-4 win over Sharapova at No. 3 while Schorlemmer claimed a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Anderson at No. 2 to make it 2-all.
 
Dishkova pulled SMU to within a point of clinching battling MSU's Kayla Casey to a 6-4, 6-4 victory at the No. 1 position with the final two matches still in question.
 
Midwestern State freshman Carrie Casey was on the brink of forcing split sets against Verner at No. 6 after dropping the first set 6-0, but Verner survived the scare to clinch the match for SMU by taking the second set in a tiebreaker at 7-3.
 
MSU sophomore Paige Boykin bounced back to force Wright into split sets before falling 6-1, 4-6, 6-1.
