Montana State's Jazmin Lerman, a sophomore from Buenos Aries, Argentina, was named the Big Sky Conference women's tennis player of the week for her effort as MSU knocked off rival Montana on Sunday in the Bobcat-Anderson Tennis Center.

Lerman clinched Montana State's 4-3 win over the Grizzlies to open its league slate. She won both her singles and doubles matches. After dropping the opening set of her singles match at No. 6, Lerman won five-straight games to force a decisive set three which she won for the 6-7(5), 6-4, 6-2 victory.

In doubles action, Lerman and partner Maria Villarejo won at No. 3 with a 6-3 victory over UM's tandem to even doubles at 1-1-- forcing the opening point to be decided at No.2, which was captured by the Cats.

Lerman shares the weekly honor with Portland State's Capu Sanoner. This marks the third time this season the Bobcat women's team has had a conference player of the week honoree.
