COLUMBIA, MO – Senior Belinda Woolcock became the 29th Gator to record 100 career singles wins and she did so providing the clinching dual match victory in Florida's 4-0 sweep against Missouri Sunday afternoon at the Mizzou Tennis Complex.

Woolcock helped the Gators remain undefeated in away matches this season, as she posted wins on the singles and doubles courts against the Tigers.

On the doubles court Woolcock paired with Josie Kuhlman and the team netted a 6-2 decision on court three for the first decision of the afternoon. The Tigers then took the victory on court one, leaving Anna Danillina and Ingrid Neel to earn the doubles point with a 6-4 victory.

Florida then raced out to big leads on the first four singles courts that were available on the indoor courts. Kuhlman logged a double-bagel playing a season-high No. 2 in the lineup and the Gators held a quick 2-0 lead.

Danilina was next with a 6-2, 6-2 victory on court three, before Woolcock polished off the dual match with a 6-1, 7-6 victory.
