Women's Tennis Topped by No. 27 Notre Dame

The Golden Eagles continued their demanding travel schedule, as they headed to No. 27 Notre Dame Saturday, to take on the Fighting Irish. However, Marquette (3-14) was unable to get on track, as they were swept, 7-0, to lose their 12th-straight contest. Notre Dame improved to 9-6.

The senior/freshman tandem of Veronica Garcia Briseno and Callan Smith pushed Notre Dame's top combo of Christian and Catrina Thompson in doubles, but lost 6-8. On the singles side, freshmen Dominika Dabrowski and Andrea Bukacek got the nods at No. 5 and 6 singles, respectively, but lost 1-6, 4-6 and 1-6, 0-6.

The Golden Eagles are back in action Monday afternoon, as they host in-state rival UW-Green Bay. Match time at the Helfaer Indoor Tennis Stadium is slated for 4:30 p.m.
