San Diego, California - The San Diego State women's tennis team (6-7 overall; 0-0 MWC) will conclude a three-match homestand, Tuesday, March 25, when it hosts Harvard in a 2 p.m. (PDT) showdown at Aztec Tennis Center.
The Scarlet and Black will then proceed to open Mountain West Conference play in Provo, Utah, with a neutral-site clash against No. 63 Utah on Friday at 11 a.m. (PDT), followed by a 9 a.m. (PDT) Saturday match-up against host and 37th-ranked Brigham Young.
The Aztecs are coming off an 11-day hiatus and were last in action on Thursday, March 13, when then No. 30 Wake Forest made its way to The Mesa. San Diego State came out on the short end of a 5-2 score, dropping just its second home match of the season. The Demon Deacons jumped out to an early 3-0 lead by sweeping SDSU in pairs action to claim the doubles point before winning the first two singles matches. Junior Holly Bagshaw kept the Aztecs' hopes alive with a 6-2, 6-3 victory over Alex Hirsch at the No. 1 position, but the Deacs went on to clinch the victory as senior Sisse Nielsen fell in straight sets at No. 5. Junior Esther Cadua was the last one off the courts, tacking on an extra point for SDSU with a 6-3, 2-6, 3-2 ret., triumph over Christian Tart on court four.
