CLARKSVILLE - Austin Peay State University women's tennis team couldn't put together against Southern Illinois, Saturday, falling 6-1 to the Salukis at the Austin Peay Tennis Center.
Much like Friday's match at Middle Tennessee, freshman Hannah Tatlock provided the Lady Govs lone victory against the Salukis. She defeated Gisela Cairo Baza 7-6, 6-4 at No. 6 singles for her second win in as many days.
The Lady Govs also got a victory on the doubles side, with senior Andra Cornea and junior Ornella Di Salvo defeating Natasha Tomishima and Korey Love, 6-3, at the No. 1 slot. Despite that victory, the Lady Govs were unable to come away with the doubles point, a focal point of head coach Ross Brown's overall strategy.
Di Salvo forced Meagan Monaghan to a third set at No. 2 singles before ultimately falling 7-6, 6-7, 12-10 in a grueling match.
The Lady Govs return to action with a 7 p.m., Friday, Feb. 14 match at Lipscomb.
