Sunbirds defeat Hope International 8-1

Box Score

Fullerton - The Sunbirds stretched their season-long win streak to seven with an 8-1 win over Hope International University in Fullerton this afternoon.

The only blemish on FPU's scorebook was an 8-2 loss at number two doubles, where  Amandine Ferot and Megan Hanner dropped an 8-2 score to HIU's Minette Steyn and Tonya Blair.

At number one singles Jelena Pandzic, who is undefeated in NAIA singles play, recovered from an uncharacteristic slow start to defeat Steyn 7-5, 6-0. Pandzic trailed 5-2 before rolling off 11 consecutive games to win the match.

The Sunbirds, ranked No. 2 in the NAIA, move to Costa Mesa tomorrow to face No. 5 Vanguard. The match begins at 1:00 PM.
