The ISU tennis team picked up its first Big 12 win against Colorado on Sunday in Boulder by a score of 5-2.

The Cyclones’ (10-8, 1-3 Big 12) win over the Buffaloes (3-10, 0-4) was its fourth conference win under Coach Armando Espinosa and its first Big 12 road win since 1997.

The Cyclones took four of the six singles points, and senior Erin Karonis defeated Kristina Schleich 4-6, 6-4, 1-0 at the No. 1 singles spot for her third-straight win. Junior Maria Macedo defeated Abbie Probert in two straight sets 6-3, 6-0 at the No. 2 slot. Sophomore Simona Cacciuttolo defeated Winde Janssens 6-4, 6-3 in the No. 4 match, and senior Liza Wischer defeated Ania Anuszkiewicz 7-5, 6-3 in the No. 6 contest.

The Cyclones also took the doubles point for the second-straight match. Juniors Macedo and Tessa Lang defeated Anuszkiewicz and Schleich 8-2 at the No. 1 doubles spot, and Karonis and Cacciuttolo defeated Michala Hedelund Jensen and Probert 8-5 at the No. 2 spot.

The Cyclones will be hoping to carry this momentum over into next weekend. They will be hosting the Kansas Jayhawks on Friday and the Kansas State Wildcats on Sunday.
