Rogers, Minn.- St. Cloud State Women's Tennis (9-4, 5-3 NSIC) defeated Southwest Minnesota State (3-11, 3-5 NSIC) 4-3 Saturday afternoon. The Huskies captured the doubles point by winning two of the three matches and earned victories in three of the six singles matches. The win marks the 5th straight victory for the Huskies which is their longest winning streak since the 2011 season where they recorded 11 consecutive victories.

In the No. 1 spot, sophomore Johana Brower (Sioux Falls, S.D.) and sophomore Claudia Muñoz Perez (Tarragona, Spain) recorded a 7-5 victory over Courtenay Leonard and Gabriela Almeida. After the lineup change last weekend, the duo has started off strong winning their first two matches. Sophomore Maria Paz Aoki (Marcos Paz, Argentina) and freshman Oriana Grott (Warsaw, Poland) earned a comfortable 6-2 victory in the No. 2 spot. In the No. 3 spot, senior Olivia Fredrickson (Fridley, Minn.) and sophomore Maria Molitor (Delano, Minn.) lost 5-7 to Joana Reis Indio and Camila Paccieri in what was a tightly contested match. St. Cloud State now has a record of 8-1 on the season when they capture the doubles point. That has been their calling card all season and they continue to take advantage when they record the doubles point.

In the No. 4 spot, senior Arisa Kashima (Saitama, Japan) won her fifth straight match with a 6-4, 6-3 win over Faith Madiwke. Brower won her 11th straight match as she crushed Camila Paccieri 6-1, 6-2 in the No. 5 spot.
