ABILENE, Texas – The 20th-ranked Midwestern State women's tennis team suffered their first sweep of the 2016 season Wednesday evening as NCAA Division I Abilene Christian tallied a 7-0 win over the Mustangs at Eager Tennis Pavilion.

Abilene Christian (19-6) claimed two of three doubles matches before recording five of six singles wins in straight sets to earn the victory over the Mustangs.

Sophomore Amy Clifton and freshman Greta Lazzarotto teamed up for the first time this season to post a win at No. 3 doubles for Midwestern State (14-7), defeating the duo of Nada Marjanovic and Andrea Crook, 6-4. However, the Wildcats clinched the doubles point with a 6-2 win on court two and a 6-3 victory at No. 1.

ACU followed with wins from Jordan Henry, Kaysie Hermsdorf and Marjanovic to clinch the victory. Senior Maddie Schorlemmer looked to put the Mustangs on the board late at No. 1 singles, forcing a super tiebreaker with a 6-2 win in the second set before falling to ACU's Erin Walker, 6-3, 2-6, 10-5, to conclude the match.

Midwestern State next travels to Austin for a 9 a.m. match Friday against No. 41 St. Edward's at the Strohmeyer Varsity Courts.
