\nMorgan State (12-7, 4-1 MEAC), winners of two straight and eight of their nine matches, ended the home campaign with a 3-0 mark.

\nCoppin State’s lone victory on the day would come at No. 1 doubles, following a 7-5 victory. However, the Lady Bears would claim the doubles point when the tandem of Roua Limem<\/a> and Tyler Williams<\/a> earned a 6-3 victory at the No. 2 spot. Morgan State then claimed a default win at No. 3 to take the 1-0 lead.

\nFrom that point on it was all Morgan State, as the hosts won all five singles matches that were played in straight sets and claimed a default victory at No. 6 when Williams extended her winning streak to 11 straight due to Coppin being short a player for that position.

Julia Jeffrey<\/a> was one of three Lady Bears who didn’t allow a point in their match, as she cruised to a 6-0, 6-0 win at No. 2 against Sierra Singh. Amira Bargaoui<\/a> picked up her 11th win, following a No. 3 singles victory over Coppin State’s Abigail Perue 6-3, 6-1.
