Women's Tennis Falls AT LC State

LEWISTON, Idaho – The Whitman College women's tennis team returned to action on Sunday, falling 6–1 to NAIA power Lewis-Clark State in non-conference play.​ The story of the game, however, was senior Sascha Wells claiming her milestone 100th career win for the Blues

In doubles, the Warriors claimed the early 1–0 lead by taking all three courts, with Whitman's top pair of Renata Rosell Puga and Nana Vang as well as the No. 2 tandem of Gloria Lau and Sascha Wells each unable to convert early chances in 6–4 and 6–1 defeats.​

The Blues' lone point came in singles, where Bailey Bell won at the No. 4 with a dominant 6-1, 6-2 result. Her victory provided a bright spot in a lineup that otherwise ran into a deep and veteran Warrior squad.​

Whitman pushed Lewis-Clark State in stretches across the singles lineup, forcing multiple deuce games and long rallies but ultimately coming up short as the Warriors swept the top four positions and secured another in straight sets at No. 6.

The loss drops Whitman to 1-2 on the young spring slate, while Lewis-Clark State continues its strong early-season form. The Blues return to action next Saturday, Feb. 24 at home against Linfield.
