Bulldogs close regular season with San Jose State and Nevada

FRESNO, Calif. – Fresno State closes the regular season this weekend with a pair of Mountain West dual matches, hosting San Jose State on Friday and Nevada on Sunday. Both matches are scheduled for 2 p.m. PT and will be played at Spalding G. Wathen Tennis Center.

The Bulldogs are 8-10 on the year and a coming off of a split last weekend in which the 'Dogs defeated Cal Poly 4-3 before falling 4-1 to Long Beach State.

Holding a 9-1 singles record during the spring, A.C. Hummel leads all Mountain West freshmen in winning percentage in dual matches (.900). In her last 10 matches, Hummel is 7-0 with three unfinished matches, and led in all three before the dual was clinched.

Shir Azran also holds the second-best winning percentage of MW freshmen in duals (.833), and is one of four freshmen in the league to have double-digit wins (10-2) after recording victories at five of six positions.
