UNI improved to 4-0 on the season, 24-0 in singles and 9-0 in doubles.
"It's good to be 4-0, we are still playing tentative, and we are starting to get some confidence, but you can't beat 4-0." said head coach Sachin Kirtane
UNI's No. 1 Meghana Paritala (Secunderabad, India) was the only Panther with a close match. Paritala defeated Yosefin Rustandar of CSU, 6-3 in the first set, but then fell behind 5-1 in the second, before coming back and winning in a tiebreaker.
The Panthers will take on Eastern Illinois saturday at 1 p.m. at the Black Hawk Tennis Club.
