Women's Tennis falls at home to Western Kentucky

CRESTVIEW HILLS, Ky. – Northern Kentucky University Women's Tennis faced another tough challenge on Friday evening when they took on in-state counterpart Western Kentucky, a squad that entered the match 3-1. NKU won one of the doubles matches, as Mariajose Hernandez and Darya Gneidina picked up a 6-4 round victory. However, NKU dropped the doubles point as Ashlee Fisk and Catharina Cardoso fell 2-6 in their match, and the Norse dropped the third doubles match by default, as they only had five competing stWKUent-athletes for the third straight match. No singles match saw an NKU player earn a set victory as they went down 7-0 to the Hilltoppers.
