Fullerton News & Notes

Cal State Fullerton (6-6, 2-1 Big West) enters the week on a two-match losing streak after finishing the month of February with an undefeated record of 5-0. The five-match win streak was the program's longest since 2007.

Currenlty three Titans possess winning dual match records led by freshman Emilia Borkowski (8-4, 2-1 Big West). In addition, redshirt sophomore Megan Sandford holds a record of 6-3 overall and 2-1 in the Big West, while sophomore Kalika Slevcove (6-4, 2-0 Big West) has also been crucial for Fullerton in 2013.

Freshman Emilia Borkowski was the only Titan able to muster a win against 51st-ranked Boston College, as the Titans lost 6-1 to the Eagles on Monday afternoon at the Titan Tennis Courts.

Playing at No. 4 in the lineup, Borkowski defeated Katya Vasilyev, 4-6, 7-6 (6), 1-0 (5). The native of La Crescenta, Calif., is now 8-4 in her rookie campaign.

Opponents
