LAST TIME OUT
The DBU Women's Tennis team battled through a competitive weekend in Lone Star Conference play last week but came up just short in a pair of 4-3 losses against strong conference opponents. On Friday, DBU traveled to Tyler, Texas, to take on UT Tyler in a tightly contested matchup, where several singles matches went to three sets, but the deciding points ultimately went UT Tyler's way. Returning home to Arlington on Saturday, the Lady Patriots faced off against St. Mary's in another hard-fought match, with the doubles point proving to be the difference in a narrow 4-3 loss. Despite the tough results, sophomore Emily Buchanan continued her dominant season, extending her perfect singles record with a straight-sets win at line five against St. Mary's and another victory at the same line versus UT Tyler. Buchanan also teamed up with Jenna Payne to form a formidable duo at line two doubles, going undefeated on the weekend and providing key points in both matches. DBU showed grit and resilience in two matches that could have gone either way and looked to turn that competitive edge into wins as conference play continued.
