Calvin Women's Tennis Edges Aquinas in Exhibition Match

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Calvin women's tennis team picked up a 5-4 exhibition match victory over Aquinas Saturday afternoon inside the Huizenga Tennis and Track Center.

Calvin picked up default points at No. 3 doubles and No. 6 singles as the visiting Saints fielded a roster of only five players.

Aquinas did take two of the three doubles points but the Knights took four singles points including key wins by senior Alexis Ganop and freshman Tessa Holman to help seal the win.

Trailing 2-1 after doubles play, Calvin picked up a default point at No. 6 singles to knot the score and took a 3-2 lead after a 6-3, 6-2 win at No. 5 singles by sophomore Marissa Baker (Holland, Mich./Holland Christian HS). Aquinas picked up wins at No. 1 and No. 3 singles to take a 4-3 lead but Ganop (Riverview, Mich./Riverview Community HS) won 6-4, 6-2 at No. 4 singles  and Holman (Washington, Mich./Romeon HS) finished up with a 6-4 6-4 win at No. 2 singles to cement the win.

NEXT UP: Calvin returns to action on February 27 when it takes on Saint Mary's of Minnesota in the opener of its spring trip to Orlando, Florida.
