RENO, Nev. - Nevada's Mountain West home opener came down to the final set of the final match against Boise State Friday, but the Pack fell, 4-3, in the end.

All eyes were on the No. 1 singles match between Nevada's Anastasia Luneva and Boise State's Pauline Ernstberger, as the pair went to a third and deciding set to settle the dual. Ernstberger would pull away in the third, capping a 3-6, 6-4, 6-2 comeback win to send the Pack to defeat against the Broncos (5-3, 1-2 MW).

Nevada (7-5, 1-2 MW) showed heart in bouncing back from dropping the doubles point to tie the match at 3-3. In singles action, Gabriella Charalampidi made quick work of Nicole Discenza at No. 5, 6-1, 6-2, followed by Selina Turulja's 6-3, 6-1 win over Ana Conde Vendrell at No. 4.

Trailing 3-2, Nevada pulled even behind a comeback effort from Mariana Campino at No. 2. The freshman came back from down 2-5 in the opening set to win five-straight games, taking the set, 7-5. She wrapped the victory with a 6-4 decision in the second set.
