VICKSBURG, Miss. - SIUE women's tennis improved to 8-1 this season with a 7-0 victory Monday over Alcorn State.

"It was good to start the trip off with a win," said SIUE Head Coach Adam Albertsen. "We were able to get another outdoor match under our belt and build off the experience."

SIUE's lineup included singles wins from Jill Lambrechts, Margaux Guibal Britt, Jordan Schifano, Amelia Gorman and Stefaniya Anikina. Cydney Rogers accepted a forfeit at No. 6 singles.

After accepting a forfeit at No. 3 doubles, Gorman and Rogers collected a 6-1 No. 1 doubles win over Doaa Mohamed and Zoe Crimmel. Paula Guillen Cerver and Chloe Koons dropped their No. 2 doubles match after the Cougars clinched the doubles point.
