DeKalb, Ill. – The St. Thomas Women's Tennis Team (0-3) fell to Northern Illinois (3-1), 7-0, in the second of three-straight days of matches on the road for the Tommies.
"We performed better than we did yesterday. Our goal is to get 1percent better every day and we did that," said Head Coach Lois Arterberry. "Nicole and Monty had a strong showing in doubles taking the number 3 line. Though Jannah fell today in a tough one, she really got out there and fought. Tomorrow we will regroup and go after in like we know how."
The sophomore duo of Nicole Snezhko and Monterey Knewtson defeated the No. 3 tandem for Northern Illinois by a score of 6-3.
In singles action, Jannah El Nemr in the No. 3 spot fell to Reagan Welch by scores of 6-2 and 7-6 in a competitive second match.
The Tommies return to action tomorrow as they play their third match in three-straight days as they face Chicago State.
