POINT LOMA COMES BACK IN SINGLES TO KNOCK OFF TAMK

SAN DIEGO-Overcoming a see-saw battle on the scoreboard, the Point Loma Sea Lions (11-5 overall) ripped off four singles victories, including the final two matches of the evening, to complete a 4-3 comeback over the Texas A&M Kingsville Javelinas Wednesday (6-5 overall) night on the PLNU Tennis Courts.

Point Loma dropped the doubles point after losses on courts 1 and 3, but Samantha Neilson and Angelique Friedrich's pairing grabbed the 7-6 win in the tiebreak just as the Javelinas clinched the point.

The Sea Lions quickly evened the match up behind Amanda Letzring's straight-sets victory, pulling out a 6-0, 6-3 win.

Tied at 1, Point Loma grabbed the lead for a moment as Faith Pearson won a commanding 6-2, 6-2 match on the sixth singles flight, putting the Sea Lions up 2-1.

But the results on courts 2 and 5 favored Texas A&M Kingsville and the Javelinas took a 3-2 lead.

They held that lead for a while as Arianna Audelo was in a battle on court one after dropping the first set 4-6.

Angelique Friedrich was also in a marathon after going to the tie break for a 7-6 win in her first set.

Audelo finished first, roaring back with 6-2, 6-3 wins in the final two sets to tie the match at 3-3.

At that point, after dropping the 2nd set 1-6, Friedrich had bounced back to take a commanding 5-1 lead on court three, sealing everything as her opponent's final return sailed long, to give Point Loma the thrilling 4-3 victory.

Point Loma returns to PacWest play on Friday hosting the University of Hawai'i Hilo at 4:00 pm on the PLNU Tennis Courts.
