INDIANAPOLIS – After suffering a nail-biting loss to the Washburn Ichabods, the No. 12-ranked UIndy women's tennis team was excellent in singles action, capturing victories at four out of the six singles points to win 4-2 against the No. 8 Wayne State Warriors.

The Warriors came out hot in doubles, taking wins at No 1 and No. 2 to earn the point. That deficit did not waver the confidence of the Hounds, the bottom of the lineup was dominant. First it was
