The Baylor Women’s Tennis team (16-12) swept Kansas State (2-20), 4-0 in the first round of the Big 12 Championships at Jayhawk Tennis Center.

Kansas State also gave up a singles point by forfeit on Court 6 against Tuhten for Baylor’s first singles point.
At the No. 3 spot, Kostenko earned a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Manami Ukita, before 84th-ranked Isabella Harvison toppled Aleen Quamar, 6-2, 6-3 on Court 4 to win the match for the Bears.
