nnnindonesia.blogspot.com
Air Force women's tennis completed day two action at the NIU Huskie Indoor Invitational Saturday in DeKalb, IL.  The Falcons took three of the top four spots in doubles play and send two competitors to the finals of their singles draws.

Karina Chao and Vivian Glozman won the Flight Two doubles, while teammates Alexis Odom and Andrea Le finished second.  In the Flight One doubles championships, Hailey Stelse and Alex Kuo finish second and Isabella Flodin and Sydney Fitch won the back draw.  

"This tournament  great because we found some combinations that really work and we have four really strong doubles teams now," head coach Kim Gidley said.  "This is what the Fall is about and I love the improvement the players are making and the direction the team is moving.  All four teams really stepped it up this weekend and I am so excited for this competition."  

In singles play, the Falcons went 6-2.  In Flight One, Glozman and Fitch won their semifinals matches.  In flight two, Stelse won her semifinal match and will play in the final tomorrow.  In Flight Three, the freshmen duo of Odom and Chao won their semifinals matches.  In flight four, Flodin won in dominant fashion, 6-1, 6-0 to advance to the championship match.  

"In the singles, the team was just as impressive, with 6 of the 8 Falcons in the finals of singles," Gidley added.  "We had some really tough singles matches in which our players came back to win.  The level of fight and discipline is huge.  For the second day in a row, Vivian Glozman and Sydney Fitch each fought back to win in the singles against some high level players, while we dominated with Hailey Stelse, Karina Chao, Alexis Odom, and Isabella Flodin, taking care of business in straight sets. 

Day three competition is tomorrow.
