College of the Canyons won a second straight conference match to complete its season sweep over Antelope Valley College on Tuesday.

Canyons (7-4, 6-3) took two points in doubles play before sweeping all six singles matches.

COC freshman Emma Chodur, the top-ranked player in Southern California, remained unbeaten with a straight sets victory from the No. 1 position. Chodur (11-0) also teamed with Baylee Renfro to earn a No. 1 doubles victory.

Renfro (4-7) won from the No. 2 singles position to get back on track after back-to-back singles losses in her last two outings.

Breana Lemos (5-6) won a point in No. 3 singles play to also snap an individual losing streak that had spanned four matches. Lemos had previously teamed with Michele Figg for an 8-0 win in the No. 2 doubles match up.

Lauren Neal (5-4) emerged victorious in her fifth straight singles match to win a point at the No. 4 spot. The sophomore's individual win streak dates back to Feb. 12.

Sophomore Nadia Godoy-Ortega (3-8) had to go to extra sets to claim her point as the No. 5 player.

Olivia Snyder (4-5) inched closer to .500 on the season with the freshman's convincing win in the No. 6 singles match up.

Canyons currently sits third in the Western State Conference (WSC) standings behind second-place Santa Barbara City College (9-1, 6-1) and conference leader L.A. Mission College (14-0, 8-0).
