The Shippensburg University women's tennis team came up short at Gettysburg on Sunday, dropping a 9-0 decision to the Bullets.
 
Shippensburg (2-10), currently limited to five players due to multiple injuries, fought hard in several singles matches despite having to play up in multiple flights.
 
At No. 5 singles, freshman Janelle Kingsboro nearly came away with her first collegiate victory, as she engaged in a three-set marathon against Tierney Cantwell – senior Brighid Cantwell's sister. After dropping the first set 6-4, Kingsboro won the second set, 7-5. The close tiebreaker went to Cantwell, 10-8.
 
Junior Kendall Winters went to a first-set tiebreaker at No. 2 singles, falling 7-6 (7-4), 6-2. Junior Brooklynn Rupert and Brighid Cantwell each won five games in their respective matches at No. 1 and No. 3 singles. Freshman Brinley Orris won four games at No. 4 singles.   
 
Gettysburg (6-2) won both No. 1 and No. 2 doubles by 8-4 scores.
 
Shippensburg does not have any matches this coming week. Its next contest is the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division opener, Wednesday, April 3 vs. Kutztown at 3 p.m. at Robb Sports Complex.
