Tennis Wins Doubles Point Before Falling to Purdue, 4-1
Apr 15 | Women's Tennis
EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J. – Rutgers tennis fell to Purdue on Friday at the East Brunswick Racquet Club. The Boilermakers claimed the four singles victories for the 4-1 win after the Scarlet Knights started the day taking two of three doubles matches for the opening team point.
Minchae Kim and Sydney Kaplan started the day with a strong 6-2 victory at second doubles, followed by duo Tess Fisher and Alisa Prinyarux finishing a 6-4 victory to claim the doubles point. Fisher and Kim both grabbed their team-leading eighth doubles wins of the season on separate courts on Friday.
At No. 6 singles, sophomore Alisa Prinyarux led with a victory in the first set, 6-4, in a match that went unfinished. Despite losing the first set at No. 4 singles, senior Sydney Kaplan made a comeback in the second set with a 6-4 triumph. However, they left the game unfinished due to Purdue's clinch.
The Scarlet Knights will conduct their last home match of the season against Indiana on Sunday, April 17 at 11 a.m. Seniors Tess Fisher, Sydney Kaplan, and Kristiana Zahare will be honored before the match on Senior Day.
