<\/p>\n \nEVANSVILLE, Ind. – The Southeast Missouri Tennis team battled at the OVC Fall Tournament\u00a0<\/p>\n The three-day tournament saw six SEMO athletes play matches in the main draw, along with consolation matches.<\/p>\n A-Flight Singles<\/p>\n The singles play began with\u00a0Maja Bajorek<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Sofia Zemtsova<\/a>\u00a0setting a defiant tone in the first round. Bajorek dropped the first set against Margaux Guibal Britt (SIUE) 4-6, but refused to concede, roaring back 6-4 to force a decisive tiebreaker, which she clinched 1-0 (10-8). Zemtsova’s match was equally tense; after losing a first-set tiebreak 6-7 (3), she rallied 6-4 and then showed nerves of steel to win the super tiebreaker 1-0 (10-5) against Michelle Trochez (LIN). Bajorek maintained her momentum in the next round, securing a swift 6-3, 6-2 victory over Fabriana Labroador (LIN).<\/p>\n However, the competition stiffened in the later stages. Zemtsova was halted by Elena Paliouira (SIUE) in straight sets, 4-6, 0-6. Bajorek’s tournament run then came to an end in the main draw with a 1-6, 2-6 loss to Yahli Noy (BRYANT). In her first match, Kristina Kozakova<\/a>\u00a0was stopped early by Jessica Li (SIUE), 4-6, 2-6, and after a win in the consolation bracket, her tournament ended with a 1-6, 4-6 loss to Richardlyne Francois (WIU).<\/p>\n B-Flight Singles<\/p>\n Mia Mayerova\u00a0was a pillar of consistency in the B Flight, starting with a 6-2, 7-6 (6) win over Natalie Walsh (TSU). She then faced her own pivotal match against Megan Caffin (LIN), battling through a 6-4, 3-6, 1-0 (10-8) tiebreaker victory to advance.
