CRESTVIEW HILLS, Ky. – The Northern Kentucky women's tennis team fell to 2-5 overall this season after being defeated by an incredibly talented 9-4 overall Saint Louis program Saturday evening.
"Lost to an outstanding Saint Louis team," said head coach
Brian Nester. "(Saint Louis) is having one of their best seasons ever, and we were competing on many of the courts and having chances to win. Our (Norse) women are very close, I'm really excited for the start of conference, because they should know they can compete with anyone."
