WOMEN’S TENNIS

The women’s tennis team had a difficult weekend, dropping both of its matches to Colorado University and Denver University.
On Saturday, The Lobos did not earn a single point and were swept 7-0 by Colorado.

After the Lobos lost the doubles point, in singles play No.1 sophomore Michaela Bezdickova had the best chance to earn a point for UNM, but after winning the first set she dropped the last two.
The story was the same for the rest of the team as no player was able to earn a point for UNM.

On Sunday, the Lobos once again were on the losing end to Denver, 6-1.

After being beaten in doubles play, four of the top five players in singles play were beaten in straight sets. Bezdickova took her game to three sets but lost in the final one, 6-4.

On the sixth court, freshman Katie Wookey won the only point for UNM, defeating Michelle Garpenlov in straight sets, 6-1 7-6.
The women’s tennis team is now 3-2 in the season.

The women’s basketball team lost its second straight game on the road to UNLV, 65-60.

After a back-and-forth first half, the Rebels took the lead with 1:26 left in the first half and kept it for the rest of the game.
In the second half, UNLV took an 11-point lead, though the Lobos cut it down to four in the final minute.

Junior guard Caroline Durbin led the team with 19 points, and senior guard Lauren Taylor chipped in with 10.

The loss takes UNM to 8-17 in the year and 2-9 in the MWC.
