Dominant Doubles and Singles Lead Lady Patriots to Weekend Success Over UAFS and SEOK

THE RUNDOWN
The DBU Lady Patriots had an impressive weekend, dominating UAFS on Friday and edging out Southeastern Oklahoma State in a tough road match on Saturday. With strong performances across both singles and doubles, the Lady Patriots showed their depth and determination, making it a memorable weekend for the team.

Against UAFS, the Lady Patriots cruised to a 6-1 victory. The doubles teams were flawless, with Madalyn Smelley and Isabella Arana-Rios, Emily Buchanan and Jenna Payne, and Isabella Quintero and Andrea Delgado all coming out on top. In singles, DBU was in complete control from start to finish. Leonie Schondelmaier, Madalyn Smelley, Isabella Arana-Rios, Jenna Payne, and Isabella Quintero each secured dominant wins at their respective lines, with only a single match going unfinished as the Lady Patriots wrapped up the victory with ease.

The match against Southeastern Oklahoma State was a much tougher battle, but DBU managed to come away with a 4-1 win. The doubles competition was a dramatic highlight, as the line 3 team of Isabella Quintero and Andrea Delgado saved four match points to secure the doubles point for DBU. In singles, the Lady Patriots came out strong, winning five of six first sets. SEOK rallied back, forcing third sets at lines 1-3, but Emily Buchanan extended her unbeaten streak, and Isabella Arana-Rios kept the momentum going. The clinching moment came from freshman transfer Katia Robinson, who secured a 6-1 third-set victory at line 2, sealing the win for DBU. 


DBU HEAD COACH WADE MORGAN ON THE TEAM PERFORMANCE 
"I am very proud of our doubles today, especially our 3 team showing great resilience and mental toughness. Today was a great team win, and we know we have to keep getting better as we go, but we're in a good place."
