Bowling Green hosts undefeated Warriors on Friday in Perrysburg Tennis Center
PERRYSBURG, Ohio – The Bowling Green Falcons (3-5, 0-0 MAC) return home for another non-conference match, hosting the Wayne State Warriors (9-0, 0-0 GLIAC) at 1 p.m. ET on Friday, March 3. The Falcons and Warriors will battle in the Perrysburg Tennis Center, admission and parking are free. Live stats for the match will be posted HERE.
This is BGSU's final non-conference home match of the season. The Orange and Brown will play three more non-conference matches, two on the road and one at a neutral site. MAC play begins Sunday, March 19, with a home tilt against Northern Illinois.
Last Time Out: Falcons Earn Second Consecutive Win Behind Strong Singles Play
Bowling Green rallied in singles to win a neutral-site match over Northern Kentucky, 4-3. Playing in Dayton, the Falcons dropped the doubles point, despite a No. 1 victory from Eloise Saraty and Ioanna Tsadari. In singles, Saraty (No. 2), Hannah Neuman (No. 4), Maru Poppe (No. 5), and Leticia Fonseca (No. 6) each tallied a win to give BGSU the 4-3 win, marking their second in a row. Saraty is 4-0 when playing in No. 2 singles, with Fonseca being 4-1 in No. 6 singles. In doubles, Tsadari and Saraty are 3-1, with all four matches being played at No. 1.
Opponent Outlook
Wayne State enters the weekend with a perfect 9-0 record, with their most recent win coming over No. 27 Drury. Anais Ruyssen, Martnya Szpakowska, and Shanice Weekes are all 9-0 in singles play, with all nine of Ruyssen's wins coming at No. 1. She pairs with Marta Komar in doubles, combining for a 6-1 record at No. 1. As a team, the Warriors are 45-6 in singles and 20-7 in doubles this spring. This will be WSU's first match against a D-I opponent this season.
Coach Bonnell's Outlook
"We're riding a two-match win streak, so we want to build on recent successes. The next day, we depart for spring break, where hopefully we'll get more wins down in sunny Florida."
Up Next
The Falcons head to Florida for a pair of non-conference matches. On Monday, March 6, they face Ave Maria, with the first serve time to be announced soon. The following morning (March 7), they travel to Lake Nona, Florida, for an 8 a.m. match with Providence.
