NORTHRIDGE, Calif. – The Beach finished up the CSUN Fall Tournament on Sunday with four singles matches and a pair of doubles contests. Thanks to an unbeaten performance on Saturday, every match for the Beach was either a main draw or consolation final in the top two flights of competition.

Carlota Casasampere led the way for the Beach on Sunday as she won the consolation final in Flight B, defeating Lucy Octave from Utah State, 6-3, 6-3.

In the top flight singles final, Wiktoria Rutkowska played a tough three-set battle against LMU's Veronica Miroshnichenko, but couldn't hang on after winning the opening set in a 2-6, 7-5, 6-3 defeat. Also in Flight A, Sadaf Sadeghvaziri played a back-and-forth match against North Texas' Nidhi Surapaneni. Sadeghvaziri came up on the short end of a 6-2, 4-6, 10-8 score line.

There was also an extremely close doubles match for the Beach as Rutkowska and Casasampere lost 7-6 (9-7) in the Flight A doubles final against the Nguyen/Ode pair from Liberty.

The Beach will return to competition Jan. 17-19 when hosting the Beach Tennis Winter Invite. The regular dual match season begins Feb. 1 at USC.
