LOGAN, Utah - Utah State's women's tennis team improved to 4-7 on the season with a 7-0 win over Southern Utah today at the Sports Academy and Raquet Club.

The Aggies dominated every match with the Thunderbirds, winning all three doubles matches and all six of the singles matches in straight sets.

"This was a good team effort," commented USU head coach Christian Wright. "Everyone just played their game today and made good decisions when they had to. We were a lot more focused today than we were yesterday and it is good to see us respond that well."

Utah State's women's team will play its final home match of the season on Wednesday, April 4, against Idaho State at 2 p.m.
