BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Alabama A&M women's tennis suffered a 7-0 loss in a non-conference affair on Saturday afternoon against Florida State in Birmingham. The Bulldogs could not find their rhythm against a solid Seminole bunch and saw A&M lose their second straight game away from home.
 
Florida State claimed the doubles point with wins on courts one and two. Jasmine Boyd and Neha Ghare fell 6-2 at the No. 1 flight, followed by Ariadna Ondo Cerezo and Camila Ruiz Diaz dropping a 6-0 game at No. 2. Alicia Owegi and Yana Dhamija paired up for a battle at court three, going unfinished at the end of doubles play trailing 5-2.

None of the Bulldogs were able to force a decisive third set in singles competition. Cerezo fell in straight sets on court six, finishing the first game of singles play, while Ruiz Diaz was swept on court two.
 
Dhamija put up a fight at the No. 4 flight with a 6-3 loss in the opening set but fell 6-0 in the second, while Owegi was the final Bulldog to fall at the No. 5 flight (6-2, 6-1) to give the Seminoles the 5-0 win.
 
Alabama A&M women's tennis returns to play on Saturday, March 25. The Bulldogs will travel to Montgomery, to resume conference play at Alabama State. That match will start at 1 p.m. at the Olean Black Underwood Tennis Center.
