Women's Tennis Falls to No. 34 ODU in C-USA Title Match

Panthers dropped 4-2 decision to Monarchs

DENTON, Texas (April 25, 2021) - The FIU women's tennis team fell to top-seeded ODU in Sunday's Conference USA title match, as the Panthers dropped a 4-2 decision to the Monarchs in Denton, Texas.

The loss was the first for FIU this season, as the Panthers fall to 12-1 on the year. 

Kamila Umarova and Andjela Skrobonja knocked off ODU's 60th-ranked doubles pair with a 6-1 victory, before Basak Akbas and Kristina Miletic fought back to win their tiebreaker and give the Panthers the early lead after winning the doubles point. 

Skrobonja put the Panthers up 2-0 after a straight-set win on court four, but the Owls took the next four singles matches to earn the 4-2 victory. 

Skrobonja finished the weekend 4-0 in singles play at the C-USA Championship.
