Senior Sarah Baker hauled in CLU Female Athlete of the Week honors after earning four points in as many chances the week of March 9-15 and guiding the Regals to a pair of non-conference victories against Principia (Ill.) and scholarship Concordia-Irvine. On Friday against PC, she teamed up with Rebecca Gold for an 8-1 victory before going on to earn a singles point for the team with a 6-0, 6-1 win on court No. 4. Less than 24 hours later she came back to the Poulson Tennis Center in the 90-degree heat where she again opened with a doubles point alongside Gold as the pair battled to a thrilling 9-7 victory, which turned into a crucial team point in a 5-4 win. Baker went back to the No. 4 court where she cruised to a 6-1, 6-3 win for the first singles point of the match.
