ATHENS, Ga. — The sixth-ranked University of Georgia women's tennis team defeated Missouri 4-0 on Sunday afternoon, in Southeastern Conference action. With the win, Georgia head coach Jeff Wallace became just the second women's tennis coach to eclipse 800 career victories. 

In doubles action, Georgia (8-3) swept to Missouri (9-5). On court two, No. 30 Meg Kowalski and Mell Reasco dominated Emelie Schwarte and Andrea Artimedi 6-0. They were quickly followed by the sophomore tandem of Guillermina Grant and Mai Niurndorn who defeated the Canete sisters 6-2.

In singles, the Bulldogs won three matches. Sixth-ranked Lea Ma cruised to a 6-2, 6-1 win over Mae Canete at the top spot. She was quickly followed by No. 76 Reasco who topped Emelie Schwarte 6-2, 6-3 on court three. Freshman Anastasiia Lopata clinched the match for the Bulldogs, defeating Inah Canete 6-3, 6-1.

Wallace, the nation's winningest active women's tennis coach, is now 46 wins away from surpassing Lin Loring, the nation's all-time winningest head coach.

The Bulldogs will return to action on Friday, March 10 when they travel to Lexington, Kentucky to face the Wildcats at 12 p.m.
