The 39th-ranked San Diego State women's tennis team kicked off its 2007 dual-match campaign in dominating fashion on Saturday, defeating Cal State Fullerton, 6-1, and UC Riverside, 7-0, in a doubleheader at Aztec Tennis Center.

Battling unusually cool temperatures throughout the day, SDSU caught fire early in its clash with Cal State Fullerton (1-1) by taking all three doubles matches. First off the court was the duo of Kathryn Kitts and Sisse Nielsen, who upended the Titans' Katrina Domela and Brandy Andrews, 8-4. The tandem of Holly Bagshaw and Eliska Krausova then secured the doubles point with an 8-3 defeat of Shelly Injejikian and Cheyenne Inglis.

In singles play, senior Alesya Vidov got things rolling for the Aztecs by overpowering Inglis in straight sets, 6-1, 6-1, in the No. 3 position. Over on the No. 6 court, freshman Ozge Atalay was triumphant in her first dual match for SDSU after taking down the Titans' Andrews, 6-4, 6-0, while sophomore Esther Cadua clinched the victory for SDSU with a 6-1, 6-2 decision over Injejikian at the No. 4 spot.

Fullerton got its only point at No. 1 singles where Gina Le defeated Bagshaw, 3-6, 7-5 and 10-8.

The Titans host Hawaii on Monday on the Titan courts.
