The 13th-ranked Kentucky women’s tennis team will open the home portion of its schedule Monday against Louisville. The Cats return home after a successful opening weekend where they defeated both Richmond and Marshall.

In the team?s first two wins, many solid efforts were put forth. The 53rd-ranked Kim Coventry won both of her matches playing in the No. 1 singles spot. The Melbourne, Australia, native also teamed with junior Lara Maurer for the first time this year to record a victory against Richmond to the help the Cats claim the doubles point.

Senior Danielle Petrisko and junior Joelle Schwenk each won both of their singles matches as well on Saturday. Petrisko also teamed with junior Caroline Winebrenner to win a pair of doubles matches on the day.

Saturday also marked a successful debut for freshman Jessica Giuggioli who won both of her matches playing in the No. 6 singles spot.
