16-3 overall and have won eight of their last nine matches.
TENNIS PLAYER OF THE WEEK
WOMEN’S
Alina Gorina, Cameron University, SR, Moscow, Russia
The Cameron senior went 6-0 last week beating UA-Fort Smith, Texas-Permian Basin, and Newman. Gorina only
dropped two games overall in No. 2 singles and swept UTPB in straight sets. In doubles, Gorina and partner

into the LSC Championships, Gorina holds a 17-3 singles and 18-4 double record in dual play.
OTHER TOP PERFORMERS
Eirini Kontaki, Midwestern State University, tallied a 3-1 record playing at No. 2 singles and No. 1 doubles for the
Mustangs last weekend. The Ialysos, Rhodes, Greece native went undefeated in singles play with a 6-1, 6-1 win
over Arkansas-Fort Smith’s Annie Tarwater and a 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 victory over No. 16 Northeastern State’s Daria
Panferova, the No. 6-ranked player in the Central Region. Kontaki, ranked 11th in the South Central Region,
posted her fifth win over a regionally-ranked opponent with the win over Panferova while pushing her win
streak to four matches and improving to 14-9 in dual play. She also teamed up with Lindsay Nochowicz for a 1-1
record at the top doubles position to move to 15-10 on the season. The pair defeated the UAFS duo of Tarwater
and Lindsy Pearce, 8-6, while dropping an 8-3 decision to NSU’s Patricia Husakova and Molly Worden, the No.
