CEDAR FALLS, Iowa — The UNI women’s tennis team wrapped up Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) play over the weekend with road matches at UIC and Valparaiso, dropping a 6-1 decision to the Flames on Saturday before falling 6-1 to the Beacons on Sunday. 

 

AT UIC 

UIC claimed the doubles point with wins on all three courts, despite a competitive showing at No. 1, where Lucia Schuknecht and Andjela Raznatovic battled to a 7-5 finish. 

In singles, Raznatovic secured UNI’s lone point of the match at the top spot, earning a win over Marta Halbersztadt after a 3-1 lead forced a retirement. Several Panthers pushed their opponents, including Yangjiaxin Li at No. 3, who forced a third-set tiebreak before falling 6-4, 3-6, 10-7. 

 

AT VALPARAISO 

UNI once again found itself in a tight doubles battle, highlighted by a narrow 7-6 loss at No. 1 from Schuknecht and Raznatovic. Valparaiso ultimately secured the doubles point with wins on courts No. 2 and No. 3. 

Raznatovic continued her strong weekend in singles, picking up a straight-sets victory at No. 1 with a 7-6, 6-3 win over Moira Silva. The Beacons, however, claimed the remaining five singles matches to secure the team victory.
