FULTON, Mo. - William Woods (7-6) started Friday's match against former AMC foe Freed-Hardeman (2-11) up 1-0 due to a short roster for the Lions, but Woods proved that the lead was not a fluke, dominating through a 7-0 win on Friday.
"We finally got our very elusive 7-0 win," said head coach
Chance Joost. "I'm happy with our growth today. It started getting windy and the Freed girls really battled but our girls did what they needed to do to win. We turned in a good performance today and now we have a much deserved couple of days off."
With Woods earning a walkover win at the three doubles,
Marta Calvo Larraz and
Hanna Lindeboom finished off the doubles point with a 6-2 win over Hannah Pearce and Morgan Brown at the one line.
Lindeboom and
Lena Greefs finished within moments of each other at the one and two singles to claim the match win for Woods. Lindeboom defeated Elize Kruzan 6-1, 6-0, with Greefs defeating Pearce 6-0, 6-1.
Kristina Dimitrijevic was the only Owl that was strongly tested on the afternoon, battling to a 7-5 first set win at the three line before shutting out Brown 6-0.
Next up for the Owls is an AMC rematch against Missouri Baptist. Woods will celebrate Senior Day prior to next Wednesday's AMC contest.
