Aggie women get 4-0 tennis win
Cameron’s women’s tennis team had a strong effort Wednesday as the Aggies took a 4-0 sweep of Southwest Baptist at the Streich-Henry Tennis Complex.
Josh Cobble’s Aggies demonstrated formidable performances in both singles and doubles competitions as they climbed to 3-3 on the season.
In doubles, the team of Anastasia Uspenskaia and Jenna Goessel contributed to the sweep by defeating Paula Ballesteros and Defne Ursane, 6-4.
Goessel also led the charge in singles, defeating Polina Paunova with scores of 6-0, 6-4. Additionally, LSC Player of the Week Martyna Jankowska continued her stellar run by overcoming Defne Ursane. 7-5, 6-1. Magda Wawrowska also turned in a dominant performance against Leticia Luiz, winning 6-1, 6-2, further extending the Aggies’ advantage.
“The ladies came out and took care of business from the start today,” Coach Cobble said. “Several of the matches had some challenges, but each time we stepped up and responded well. Really happy with how we competed today.”
Looking ahead, Cameron’s next action is Monday when No. 5-ranked Washburn comes to the Streich-Henry Family Tennis Complex at Cameron University. Cobble hopes that the momentum gained from the shutout will help provide a spark against Washburn.

In doubles, Kristian Kubik and Lachlan Setina managed a 7-5 victory against the No. 23-ranked duo from Southwest Baptist, Juan Ignacio Morresi and Marcio Silva, highlighting a strong effort in doubles play.
Kubik won both his singles and doubles matches, marking his return to singles competition after more than a year away from competing in both.
Coach Josh Cobble expressed his disappointment post-match, highlighting the team’s failure to capitalize on key moments.
“This was a disappointing result for today,” Cobble said. “We had many opportunities to take the match and were unable to do our part on the court. We have to do a better job under pressure if we are going to be successful.”
Cameron men are eager to rebound from their 3-5 record as they host No. 5- ranked Washburn at the Streich-Henry Family Tennis Complex Monday.
