PHILADELPHIA — The University of Pennsylvania women’s tennis team fell to Delaware on Friday at the Hecht Tennis Center, 4-3.
 
The Quakers dropped two out of three doubles matches, falling behind 1-0 in the early portion of the match. Maya Urata and Joleen Saw secured the lone doubles victory for the Red and Blue, winning 6-4 in the No. 1 spot.
 
The Blue Hens then took the first three singles matches as they took full control going up, 4-0. Three consecutive wins by Varsha Vedula, Liza Tkachenko and Lara Stojanovski were not enough for the Quakers to emerge victorious.
 
Penn looks to get back on track on Sunday when they square off against FDU at the Hecht Tennis Center for the second of the two weekend matches.
