Anja Cosovic and Daniella Barta teamed up to outlast Evelyn Moreno and Liliana Araucz, 8-3, at No. 2, before UWA's No. 15 ranked team of Amina Mukhametshina and Georgina Morral salvaged doubles for the Tigers at No. 2 with an 8-6 win over Bea Morales Hernandez and Anke Poncelet.

Entering singles action with a narrow 2-1 advantage, Cosovic went right back to work with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Tatishvili at No. 3, before Ubeda blew by Evelyn Moreno at No. 2. Needing just one additional point, Poncelet answered the call and sealed the match with a dominant 6-2, 6-1 win at No. 5.

The win lifted Valdosta State to a 16-5 overall record on the season and advanced the Lady Blazers to their 14th appearance in the Gulf South Conference Championship.
