GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Florida Gators Women’s Tennis made quick work of the Morgan State Bears on Thursday night at the Alfred A. Ring Tennis Complex, 5-2.
 
The win is the third straight for the Orange and Blue, who maintain momentum ahead of a weekend featuring two conference matchups at home.
 
Both of the Gators’ pairings for doubles cruised to 6-2 victories to secure an early 1-0 lead in the dual. Heading into singles play, the Gators forfeited singles court six and looked again at an even score.
 
No. 91 Alicia Dudeney dominated on court two, dismantling Morgan State’s Marta Serra Carles to the tune of a 6-0, 6-0 score. Dudeney’s doubles partner, Noemie Oliveras, authored a similarly one-sided singles match. Oliveras’ 6-1, 6-0 performance gave the Gators a 3-1 lead in the dual.

Once the match was sealed, Rachel Gailis put the finishing touches on her own 6-1, 6-1 masterclass on court one.
