On the other doubles court, Mercer's Lea Falentin and Emilia Cosatto also won 6-0 as they defeated ABAC's Emily Macri and Kylie Childers.

On the third singles court, Emilia Cosatto played a great first set against ABAC's Emily Macri winning 6-0 and didn't have let Macri get much going in the second set either, winning the set 6-2.
