Coyotes fall to Colorado State

LINCOLN, Neb. – Colorado State handed South Dakota a 4-0 women's tennis dual setback on Saturday morning inside the Dillon Tennis Center on the University of Nebraska campus.
 
The Rams won the doubles point, taking the No. 1 and No 3 doubles matches, 6-1 and 6-2, respectively.
 
Colorado State then closed the match with wins at No. 2, 3 and 5 singles.
 
The Coyotes were leading at No. 4 (Sydney Weinberg) and 6 (Selena Bird) singles, having taken the first set, when play was halted. South Dakota No. 1 singles player Bea Havlickova had a lead in the second set when play was stopped.
 
"Hard fought match today," coach Brett Barnett said. "CSU has a really strong team and earned the win.  I felt we fought really well as a team.
 
"First time all year I really felt everyone was engaged and competed hard. Bea, Syd and Selena played really well and had chances if this match is played out. Good positive steps for us and we have to be ready to battle again tomorrow."
 
South Dakota (1-4) plays again on Sunday at 1 p.m. against host Nebraska.
