Hatters Downed by UNF in ASUN Opener

Stetson women's tennis opened ASUN Conference play with a 6-1 loss to North Florida, Saturday at Mandy Stoll Tennis Center.

A young Hatters' team with four freshmen in the lineup faced a daunting task against the 3-time defending champion Ospreys. In the end, a more experienced UNF squad was too much for Stetson.

The Hatters (8-6 overall, 0-1 ASUN) opened play with a pair of quick losses in doubles as the Ospreys gained a 1-0 lead in the match.

UNF (11-6, 1-0) won the first five singles matches in straight sets for a 6-0 lead.

Stetson's Lucie Renault kept it from being a clean sweep for UNF with a 7-5, 6-4 win at no. 4 for Stetson's only victory of the day.

The Hatters return to action when they visit USC Upstate, Thursday, March 29.
