Junior Erynne Oki of UC Riverside was named the Big West Women’s Tennis Player of the Week after she picked up a win in her #1 Singles match against #61 Julie Trunk of San Diego State, 6-4, 4-6, and 11-9.
Oki became the first UCR player to beat a singles player ranked that high since the school moved to Division I. It was the only point for the Highlanders in their 6-1 loss to the No. 49-rated Aztecs down in San Diego, CA last Saturday.
UCR does not return to the courts until next week when they host a dual match with Cal Poly Pomona on February 6th.
