CINCINNATI --The Marquette University women's tennis team capped off its spring break week at conference-foe Xavier on Saturday, but fell, 5-2 to the Musketeers at the Eastern Hills Tennis Club.
Silvia Ambrosio and Paula Tormos Sanchez won their No. 1 doubles match with ease, 6-2, but Marquette faltered and ultimately dropped the first point to Xavier.
Fleur Eggink and Lesley Foe were the lone scorers for the Golden Eagles (8-5) in singles action as Eggink claimed a hard-fought, 6-7, 6-2, 6-0 win on the No. 4 court, followed by a No. 6 singles win from Foe in a swift, 6-1, 6-2 decision.
Marquette will have a short break and return to the court on Saturday, April 1 at fellow BIG EAST school, Butler at Noon CT.
