Christiansz wants ASU Hornets off to fast start

MONTGOMERY, Alabama  --  Alabama State's tennis team will be in New Orleans this weekend for the Southwestern Athletic Conference championships and men's and women's tennis coach Anuk Christiansz said it is important both teams get off to a good start.

"The women really need to win the doubles point as do the men," Chrisitiansz said. "The women's match (against third-seeded Prairie View), when we played during the regular season, was really close and evenly matched and I know it was a fun match to watch, but we want to pick up the win and the doubles point is very important."

The Lady Hornets (11-13) went out and did what Christiansz asked, winning the doubles point in Friday's match with Prairie View, propelling Alabama State to a 4-1 upset win over the third-seeded Panthers.
