WACO, Texas – The No. 7-ranked Baylor women’s tennis team will host Houston Friday at the Hurd Tennis Center at Noon. The Bears will also honor four seniors prior to the match with festivities beginning at 11:40 a.m.



Baylor received its highest ranking from the ITA since April of 2015 when the Bears jumped from No. 11. Baylor is 16-2 on the season with a 4-0 mark in the Big 12. Houston is 10-3 overall and 3-1 in the American Conference coming into the contest.



The Bears will honor seniors Angelina Shakhraichuk, Jessica Hinojosa, Livia Kraus and Kristina Sorokolet prior to Friday’s match. Shakhraichuk and Hinojosa were seniors last season and the NCAA allowed them to come back for a fifth season due to a COVID-19-shortened 2020 season. Technically, Sorokolet and Kraus have an option to return in 2022, but neither’s future plans with the program have been established.



All four players are having career seasons with Kraus at 24-3 overall in singles and 15-0 in dual-match play. Shakrhaichuk is 19-9 overall and 12-4 in dual-match play. Sorokolet is 12-4 and 5-2, respectively and Hinojosa is 15-11 overall and 9-6 in dual-match play.



Admission to the match is free and capacity is limited to 50 percent. Follow Baylor Women’s Tennis all season long @BaylorWTennis on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
