MVC Tennis Weekly Honors (Apr. 7)
ST. LOUIS — The Missouri Valley Conference announced the women’s tennis weekly honors on Tuesday. Moira Silva of Valparaiso was named Singles Player of the Week, Valeriia Ivanovskaia and Ann Hsieh of Bradley were named Doubles Team of the Week.

Singles Player of the Week
Moira Silva, Sr., (Houston, Texas) - Valparaiso
 

Valpo senior Moira Silva won her only match of the week at No. 1 Singles, edging UIC's Edit Cosmo in a tightly-played match on Friday at The Courts of Northwest Indiana. She bounced back from a narrow 5-7 loss in the first to win the next set on a tiebreak, 7-6(3). Since the team match was already decided by the time the second set reached its completion,they used a 10-point tiebreak to resolve the match, and Silva won 10-8. Silva improved to 15-4 on the season including 13-2 in dual matches. Her win came over Cosmo, last year's Missouri Valley Conference Freshman of the Year. Silva picked up her 63rd career singles win, moving into sole possession of third in program history. 

Doubles Team of the Week
Valeriia Ivanovskaia, Sr., (Yekaterinburg, Russia) | Ann Hsieh, Fresh., - Bradley
 

The duo of Valeriia Ivanovskaia and Ann Hsieh continued their hot start to conference play, as they picked up two more wins on doubles court one against Murray State and Belmont. Ivanovskaia and Hsieh knocked off the Racers' Barbora Hermanova and Bruna Melato, 6-2, on Friday and the Bruins' Savannah Webster and Jessica Popiol, 6-4, on Saturday. Saturday's victory was one-third of Bradley's doubles sweep against Belmont. The pair is now 4-0 on doubles court one during conference play and is 6-1 in 2026.
