PENSACOLA, Fla. – The 14th-ranked West Alabama women's tennis team won for the seventh time in its last eight outings, defeating No. 35 St. Mary's of Texas, 6-1, Friday at the Carson Tennis Complex on the University of West Florida campus.
 
UWA's fifth straight win improved the Tigers record to 8-4. St. Mary's dropped to 7-4.
 
"This is a good win against a very tough team," UWA head coach Jeff Beaman said. "The ladies are playing well right now. I am pleased with the way we are playing and doing the things we need to do to reach our goals."
