Murray State women's tennis grab third weekend win over Lipscomb, Sunday.

The Racers won the match 5-2 after taking the doubles portion with wins from the Paola Campigotto/Emma Honore (6-2) and Sarah Bureau/Jordina Font (7-5) pairs.

Natalie Slevakova was the first to put the Racers in the singles win column with a straight-set win. MSU had another singles win from Annika Pschorr before Honore clinched the match with her three-set win over Lipscomb's Sofiia Paladi.

"We had lots of ups and downs throughout the match but it was something we expected given it is only our first weekend of competition. Very happy with how we competed from top to bottom," said head coach Jorge Caetano.
