Hewlett Downs Oceanside in Conference II-B Action

September 21, 2015 | By Long Island Tennis Magazine Staff

The Hewlett Girls Tennis team remained undefeated in the 2015 season on Friday, downing Oceanside 6-1 in Conference II-B play.

The match was clinched at second doubles, as Ashley Yedosin and Danielle Grushkoasoly picked up a 6-3, 6-1 victory.

Hewlett’s first-year Head Coach Abby Samlin said, “We have a lot of juniors, so we’re not veterans, but we’re experienced. We still have some things to work on but we are playing well.”

With the match already decided, Julieta Eulau of Oceanside and Kseniya Zonova of Hewlett played in a fantastic match at first singles, playing into a third-set tiebreaker. Zonova, a native of Ukraine who just moved to Hewlett back in the spring, would come out on top in the tie-breaker, but the level of play in the match showed that these are two of the top players in Nassau County.

Hewlett will take on local rival and fellow undefeated squad South Side next.

In Conference 1 action, Syosset improved to 3-1 on the season as Marissa Levine & Gabi Sklar defeated the team of Marina Hilbert & Elizabeth Quick from Friends Academy, 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 in the clinching match at first doubles. Great Neck South also improved to 3-1 with a 4-3 win over Jericho. Sydney Spector & Amanda Cohn won the deciding match at third doubles, 6-7(4), 6-3, 6-4. Roslyn went on the road to Locust Valley and defeated them 4-3. Roslyn was led by Carly Berman & Izzy Glick, who defeated Emily Friedman & Sarah Lubow in straight sets 7-6 (5), 6-2 at first doubles. 

In Conference II-B, the South Side Girls Tennis team defeated PlainviewJFK in a match played at Hempstead Lake State Park. The team was led by strong performances from its singles trio and its third and fourth doubles teams. The Lady Cyclones are now 4-0 and take on local rival Hewlett this afternoon. 

In Conference III-A action, Baldwin won a tough road matchm defeating Plainedge 4-3. The third doubles team of
Karen Chen & Jeanette Blanchette defeated the team of Gabriella Weir & Jessica Barbieri in two tough sets, 7-5, 7-5, and in fourth doubles, Meghan Walia & Claire Curran were victorious in their match over Plainedge's Karley Riegel & Julianna Abravaya, 6-0, 7-6.
