GRAND FORKS, N.D. - Chicago State, the tournament's top seed, swept both doubles and won the first two singles matches to clinch a 4-0 victory over New Jersey Institute of Technology in this morning's third place game of the 2010 Great West Conference Tennis Championship at Center Court Fitness Club.
In No. 1 doubles, CSU's Dian Mayasari and Golda Rubina teamed for an 8-6 win over NJIT's Nina Mayevska and Isha Toor. In No. 2 doubles, Juan Rosalia Tejoprayitno and Juan Rosalina Tejoprayitno combined for an 8-4 win over Ana Lidon and Anine Lovdal.
