KISSIMMEE, Fla. - The Creighton women's tennis team closed out its trip to Florida on a three-match win streak with a trio of 7-0 decisions.

At No. 1 singles sophomore Jennie Hartjes went 3-0 giving up seven games in three match wins. Junior Analese Snyder held opponent to just six games in three wins at the No. 2 singles spot. Senior Anna Kirshenbaum surrendered only five games in a trio of victories at the No. 3 position.
