Tennis improves at second tournament of the season

Houston traveled north to Dallas over the weekend to compete in the SMU Invitational, where it won 15 total matches.

Houston improved on its six wins at the Rice Invitational, the first time the rebuilding Cougars took the court together.

Friday was a successful first day for the Cougars, with the team earning itself three singles wins and another in doubles.

Sophomore Ndindi Ndunda picked up Houston’s first singles win of the tournament when she defeated sophomore Momoka Horiguchi of UT Arlington in straight sets.

Then, Ndunda won the semifinals two sets to one and the consolation final on Sunday against SMU junior Tiffany Hollebeck in straight sets.
