RADFORD, Va. – The Radford women's tennis team got back to its winning ways with a 7-0 victory over USC Upstate on Wednesday.

The match started in Radford's favor as Malin Falk and Katey Fruehauf took the first doubles match and Jeanine Acierto and Anastasia Belyaeva clinched the point with a 6-2 victory.

Drousile Dzeubou took care of business and was the first singles match to complete. She defended court 2 and won 6-3, 6-0. Anastasia Belyaeva added to the scoreboard with a 6-4, 6-4 win on court 1. That gave Radford a 3-0 lead.
