MUNCIE, Ind. - Grace Keating and Cam Sabourin went to a tiebreaker in their doubles match, while Tamara Blum fell just short of pushing her singles match to a third set as the Oakland women's tennis team (1-7) fell to Ball State, 7-0, Friday evening at the Muncie YMCA.
"Everybody had moments of good play in their matches," said coach Heather Redshaw. "We just did not have enough to win today but are looking forward to having solid performances tomorrow at Wright State."
