TUCSON, Ariz. – Arizona's women's tennis team (9-9) fell 6-1 to California (8-5) on Friday at the LaNelle Robson Tennis Center.

In doubles play, California's Olivia Hauger/Julia Rosenquist won over Arizona's Devin Chypyha/Camila Wesbrooks on court one 6-2. The Bears secured the doubles point when Marie Van Aelst/Gitte Heynemans fell to Anna Bright/Vivian Glozman 6-3 on court two, leaving the third match unfinished between Paris Corley/Sophia Thomas and Alexis Nelson/Maria Smith on court three.
 
The Bears continued their success into singles play when Julia Rosenqvist won over Devin Chypyha 6-3, 7-5. Gitte Heynemans fell to Vivian Glozman 6-4, 6-4 on court five. Maria Smith clinched the match for California when she defeated Marie Van Aelst on court four, 6-2, 6-4. Anna Bright won over Camila Wesbrooks 6-1, 5-7, 6-1 on court two, and Paris Corley fell to Olivia Hauger 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 on court three.
 
Sophia Thomas scored the Wildcat's only point when she defeated Hana Mraz 7-5, 6-2 on court six.

"I was very pleasantly surprised with the team today," said head coach Vicky Maes. "I think we came out and battled on every single court. In doubles, we had good starts on all three courts but let it slip away. Some of the scores in our singles matches don't reflect how close the games were. I don't think we let our opponents intimidate us, which is what we have been working on. We just try to play our game and try to bring out the best in ourselves. The energy on and off the court was great, and for me it was a nice change to see in the girls."

The Cats will host Washington on Friday, April 6 at 1:30 p.m. MST and Washington State on Saturday, April 7 at 12 p.m. MST.
