Racer Pick Up Comeback Win Over Austin Peay
2/4/2023 4:20:00 PM | Women's Tennis
Pschorr wins late to complete Racers' comeback win
Murray State Tennis Grabs the Win Over Austin Peay in the Popeyes Battle of the Border, Friday.
Annika Pschorr completed a comeback win for the Racers by winning the night's final match (5-7, 7-6, 7-5) to clinch the win.
The Racers' Jordina Font/Sarah Bureau pair won her doubles match with a dominant 6-1 performance. Still, it was not enough as Jana Leder/Melody Hefti and Denise Torrealba/Yu Cheng doubles pairs won the doubles point for the Governors.
Natalie Slezakova was the first to put the Racers on the board after securing a straight-set win in her singles match. MSU and APSU went back and forth in winning singles matches until Pschorr clinched the Racers' win.
"Overall, very high level of play from both teams. What I think stood out today was that we were able to beat a very strong Austin Peay team," said head coach Jorge Caetano.
"The girls showed a lot of fight, resilience and character and were able to come back from behind and win in the end. This was a very important match for us moving forward."
