Nevada falls after New Mexico scores four straight points

Box Score ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Nevada Women's Tennis fell to New Mexico, 4-3, in its second conference game of the season after leading 3-0 and the Lobos scoring four straight points. 

The Pack (4-7, 0-2) started the day off winning the doubles point for the early 1-0 advantage.  After the Lobos' (10-4, 1-0) team of Vianca Corley and Vivica Corley defeated Wiem Boubaker and Kennedy Robinson, 6-0, the Pack bounced back with the next two matches. The duo of Amahée Charrier and Petra Janigova defeated Yu Yun Kathy Tsai and Bente Vandeputte, 7-6. Silvia Maria-Costache and Marlene Foerster clinched the point after beating Sarah L'Allier and Coumba Ben Niangadou, 6-3.

Nevada grew its lead at the start of singles play with Charrier taking down Vandeputte, 6-4, 6-2. Boubaker then gave the Pack a 3-0 lead after she defeated Malazdra, 6-3, 6-2.

New Mexico began its comeback when Foerster fell to Vianca Corley, 3-6, 7-6, 6-4. The Lobos got two more points to tie the match at three after Janigova fell to Tsai, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1, and Costache was defeated by Veroux, 4-6, 7-6, 7-6. 

The match came down to court five as Robinson fought to give Nevada the win, but ultimately wasn't able to take down Matsoukatidi as New Mexico got the comeback win, 7-5, 7-6.

Nevada will return home next weekend to face Wyoming on Friday at 12 p.m. and Colorado State on Sunday at 12 p.m.
