Cold weather, windy conditions and unusual losses atop the singles depth chart spoiled the afternoon for the lawhawks.
as they were upset by Colorado 4-3 yesterday at Alvamar Racquet Club.
KANSAS TENNIS
The 'Hawks (10-7 overall and 4-4 in the Big 12 Conference) took the doubles point to open the match but were unable to secure wins in their top three singles matches.
Kansas coach Kilmeny Waterman was surprised by the singles losses.
"Losing at the top three singles positions is very unusual for us and that obviously hurt," Waterman said. "I was shocked because we have come through in the past."
Lisa Malliaiah and Emily Haylock emerged as the only two victorious 'Hawks singles players against Colorado (8-8 and 3-3). Malliaiah earned a three-set victory at the No. 4 singles position, rebounding from a first-set loss to defeat Morgan Sall 1.6-6,0-6.1.
Haylock was victorious in doubles play as well, teaming up with Monica Sekulov to defeat Lia Dimingo and Suzanne Bjorkman 8-4 at the No.2 doubles slot. Courtney Steinbock and Kristen Steinbock were also victorious as they defeated Karoline Graeubig and Sall 8-2 at the No.1 doubles position.
Monica Sekulov, the Jayhawks' top singles player, said the outdoor conditions had an effect on both teams.
"We have not been able to play outside much, which probably hurt us," Sekulov said. "I didn't feel like I was hitting the ball very well."
The 'Hawks, ranked No. 45 nationally, are competing for a spot in the
Central Region Tournament with only five matches remaining.
"This loss really hurt us, but a lot can happen in the remainder of the season." Waterman said.
Still, Waterman said she has been happy with her team's performance thus far in the season.
Sekulov also thought there were some areas that needed work entering the final six matches of the season.
"We need to work on our focus and the way we start our matches." Sekulov said. "We finish well, so beginning strongly is important."
"This has been our first unexpected loss of the season," Waterman said. "Hopefully this loss will serve as a positive wake-up call for this team and magnify some of the things we need to work on."
The Jayhawks will play Kansas State at 1 p.m. Sunday at Alvamar Racquet Club.
