VALDOSTA, Ga. - The Valdosta State women's tennis team scored their second Gulf South Conference victory of the 2018 season after rolling past the Chargers of Alabama-Huntsville in a 6-2 win on Sunday afternoon at The VSU Tennis Courts.

The Lady Blazers were sparked by Sabrina Schmidt and Estee Widdershoven at No. 1 doubles, who scored an 8-5 win over Stefanie Mehlich and Sarah Stearman. Cristina Cabanas and Mariana Lopez fired right back with an 8-5 victory over Daniella Barta and Hera Brynjarsdottir at No. 2, but the Chargers were unable to send a full team out at No. 3, which allowed the Blazers to take a 2-1 advantage going into singles action.
