NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Drake University women's tennis team (12-7, 5-1) powered through a weather-induced adjustment to defeat MVC-newcomer Belmont by a 4-1 margin this afternoon.
Due to inclement weather, the match between Drake and the Bruins was moved inside. Limited court space forced the two teams to begin with singles competition.
Ines Stephani starred in the top spot for Drake, defeating the Bruins' ace Mariia Hlahola 6-2, 6-0. Mille Haagensen and Elizabete Klavinska also earned victories for the Bulldogs in the No. 2 and No. 3 positions, respectively.
