It was a back-and-forth contest between Miyuka Kimoto and Lan Mi on Court 3. Well, that was until Kimoto suffered an injury in the second set that forced her to forfeit her match. However, that was the only point allowed by the Orange in this one as they rolled to a 6-1 win over Cornell.
After the match, Head Coach Younes Limam talked about Kimoto’s injury as well as his team’s success, “I think it’s just been a little bit more on the safe side. We have another one on Sunday and [we’re] just trying to save her body for Sunday.”
“Couldn’t be prouder of the team. I think we set the tone early in doubles. I think it was big for us to have an early start in the doubles and setting the tone. In singles, I think some of the matches were obviously very competitive, but we played the bigger points better than Cornell today and I couldn’t be more pleased.”
It is safe to assume that we can expect Miyuka Kimoto back on the court on Sunday when the Orange welcome Delaware at 11 a.m.
