Emporia State traveled to Hillsboro, Kan. on Friday and took care of business with a 7-0 win over a short handed Tabor College team.

Stranghoner was leading 6-0, 1-0 at #3 singles when her opponent retired to give ESU a 3-0 lead.  Angelina Gnezdilova at #1, Karen Santiago at #2, Andra Santiago at #4 and Sheriden Wichman at #5 all won 6-0,6-0 as the Hornets evened their season record at 2-2.

The Emporia State men will play host to Tabor on Saturday at the Kossover Family Tennis Center.  First serve is set for 11:00 a.m. The next action for the women will be on Thursday, March 2 when the MSU-Denver men and women come to Emporia.
