CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – Drake women's tennis traveled to Cedar Falls on Saturday afternoon for a Missouri Valley Conference duel. Drake kept with the Panthers for much of the day's action but could not inch in front as UNI sent the Bulldogs back to Des Moines with a 4-3 defeat.
UNI won the doubles point to start the day with tandem wins in the Nos. 1 and 2 positions. Jana Ruzic and Nicole Lee teamed up at No. 3 for a 7-6 win over UNI's Lasya Mylavarapu and Abbie Peterson, but their effort was too little, too late as the Panthers took a 1-0 lead overall.
