Cougars Fall in Season Opener Against Lawrence

Box Score RIVER FOREST, ILL. -- The Cougar Women's tennis team took the courts for their first official home match of the season where they fell to Lawrence University despite some tough battles.

Doubles
  • All three doubles matches would see the Cougars winning at least one game in their match. 
  • Leading the charge on court one, the duo of Amelia Engelman (McKinney, Texas) and Amirah Shakir (Dekalb, Ill.) managed to pick steal some games in the set, but would ultimately lose their match 6-2.
  • The remaining two duos would both fall 6-1, with all new Cougars making their maroon and gold debut in Kathleen Castillo (Elmwood Park, Ill.), Hannah Upole (Hinkley, Ohio), Courtneye Schneider (Plainfield, Ill.). 
Singles
  • On the singles side, the Cougars would struggle just a bit with only two Cougars securing games in their match.

The Cougars face a quick turnaround as they kick off NACC play at home against Milwaukee School of Engineering on Saturday with a 10:00am start.
