FORT COLLINS, Colo. - The University of Utah women's tennis team knocked off another road win on Saturday as they faced the Colorado State Rams. The Utes earned a 5-2 victory to improve their season to 12-6 and are 3-1 in conference play.
"I thought the team competed fairly well in the windy outdoor conditions," said head coach Mat Iandolo. "We look forward to tomorrow's match. Hopefully we can go 3-0 for the weekend."
The Utes earned the doubles point to give them a 1-0 lead heading into singles play. Karine Bourdages finished up first for the Utes in singles play with a 6-1, 6-1 win over Greer Satherlie from the Rams at the No. 6 spot.
