SAN DIEGO, Calif. - The Cal State Fullerton Titans women's tennis season came to end on Thursday afternoon after the Titans fell 4-3 in a very tight knit match against the CSUN Matadors at the Barnes Tennis Center in the Big West Championship First Round. 

The Titans were looking to avenge a 5-2 loss earlier this season against CSUN, but ultimately came up just short as it came down to one final match.

The Titans fell behind early after dropping th doubles point.  The Matadors won in No. 3 doubles 6-1 before the Titans tied it after Milena Gevorgyan and Sein Myoung took the No. 1 doubles match 6-3.  However, the No. 2 pairing of Kaytlin Taylor and Seha Yu lost to the Matador pairing of Madison Shepperson/Yuliia Zhytelna 6-4.

In singles, it became a back and forth affair as the Titans tried to play their way back into the match.  Seha Yu tied the match at 1-1 after winning in No. 2 singles 6-1, 6-3.  The Matadors went ahead 2-1 after winning No. 3 singles before the Titans tied it back up at 2-all.  Sein Myoung continued her perfect run in No. 1 singles after winning 7-5, 6-1 over Yuliia Zhytelna.  The Matadors got to the brink and led 3-2 after winning in No. 4 singles, 7-6 (7-4), 6-2.  However, the Titans continued to fight as Kaytlin Taylor won in No. 6 singles, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4)

It came down to the final match on court No. 5 where Emma Moratalla Sanz rallied back for a 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 win over Milena Gevorgyan to win the match for the Matadors.

Ellie Johnson's first season at the helm of the Titans came to an end with a 10-10 overall record and a 4-5 record in conference play.  The Titans did miss out on four matches that were canceled due to weather for the season.  The Titans also have a lot to build on with seven players returning from this year's roster and the Titans missing the play of Emilie Lugon-Moulin who had to redshirt the season after transferring mid-season.

Sein Myoung completed a perfect 9-0 record in singles play at the No. 1 spot in conference play and went 10-0 against Big West Opponents.  Myoung finished with a 15-4 record and won her last 12 singles matches in a row to finish the season.
