HAMMOND, La. – The Southeastern Louisiana women's tennis team's scheduled Southland Conference match with Nicholls has been postponed.
The Lions (7-8, 1-3 SLC) were scheduled to host the visiting Colonels (9-12, 1-4 SLC) Thursday at 2 p.m. but the match has been postponed due to expected inclement weather. No makeup date and time has been agreed upon at this time. SLU's 1 p.m. match Saturday versus New Orleans (8-6, 1-3 SLC) is currently still on as scheduled.
Southeastern is led in singles play by
Putri Insani (10-3, 2-2 SLC).
Kate Oborina (8-5, 3-1 SLC) has the team's best league mark and carries a three-match singles win streak.
Gabrielle Dekkers (7-5, 1-3 SLC) and
Carla Del Barrio (7-7, 2-2 SLC) are next on the team's dual match singles victory leaderboard.
In doubles play, Insani and
Flory Bierma (9-4, 3-1 SLC) continue to be the Lions' top tandem. Dekkers and Del Barrio (5-4, 2-2 SLC) have been solid on the No. 2 court, while Oborina and
Alba Perez (2-3, 1-1 SLC) earned their first conference win Tuesday versus Lamar.
New Orleans is led in singles play by Didi Bredberg Canizares (10-1, 3-1 SLC), the reigning SLC Women's Tennis Player of the Week. Bredberg Canizares and Raluca Puscas have a 9-3 record in doubles play, as does the pair of Anastassia Kourchnareva and Ksenia Reznitskaya.
