BERKELEY – California completed a sweep of the Washington schools with its 7-0 rout of Washington State on Saturday at the Hellman Tennis Complex. The No. 9/16 Golden Bears didn't lose a match much less a set on either day.

Cal improved its record to 15-3 (8-1 Pac-12), while WSU fell to 10-14 (0-9 Pac-12).
 
Before beating the Cougars, Cal celebrated the careers of seniors Maegan Manasse, Denise Starr and Stephane Lin and grad student Maya Jansen, who would be playing in the penultimate regular-season match of their careers. All four won matches on Saturday, but it was a sophomore – Olivia Hauger – who clinched the victory over WSU.
 
Hauger, ranked 104th, defeated Victoria Matejevic, 6-3, 6-0, at court-four singles to clinch.
 
She was also part of the duo that clinched the doubles point, as she paired with Lin to beat Ege Tomey and Guzal Yusupova, 6-1, on court three to give Cal the early 1-0 lead.  The 51st-ranked pair of Jansen and Manasse also won in doubles, beating Matejevic and Aneta Miksovska, 6-0, on court one.
 
Manasse, ranked 65th in singles, soon gave Cal a 2-0 lead, as she breezed through a 6-2, 6-1 victory over Barbora Michalkova on court one. Jansen likewise posted a 6-2, 6-1 win, as she knocked off Melisa Ates on court five.
 
After Hauger clinched, fellow sophomore Maria Smith beat Tomey, 6-0, 6-4, to give Cal a 5-0 lead. Cal junior Karla Popovic, ranked 12th, followed with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Yusupova on court two, before Starr ended the day with a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Miksovska on court three.
 
"I was pleased with both days this weekend," Cal head coach Amanda Augustus said. "We wanted to see how we would respond today after yesterday's win. I was pleased with how we played in doubles. We still will work on longer point situations for singles, and I think we can work on some of our transition shots. But this will lead well into next week. We're looking forward to it."
 
Cal closes the regular season when it hosts Stanford in the Big Slam on April 22 at noon in a match televised on the Pac-12 Networks.
