Leathernecks Fall at St. Thomas

The 7-0 decision featured several tight scores in singles play.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. | The Western Illinois women's tennis team dropped a 7-0 decision to St. Thomas Sunday (March 13); however, quite a few singles matches were evenly played. 

The Tommies jumped out to an early 1-0 edge behind 6-2 and 6-1 doubles, but singles play was a battle. Lucky Kancherla took her opponent to three sets in the No. 6 spot (4-6, 7-4, 0-1) while No. 3 Aina Cortina-Pou and No. 5 Paige Grice each fought for 7-6 setbacks in their opening sets. The first-year Grice continued to attack in the second set for a narrow 6-4 loss. 

Next up, the Leathernecks return to Macomb for back-to-back outings against St. Francis (March 18) and North Dakota (March 19). Their previously scheduled match at Youngstown State, scheduled for March 16, has been canceled.
