BOULDER – After a long four-match road trip the University of Colorado women’s tennis team finally returned home to Boulder, only to drop their match 6-1 against another tough Pac-12 opponent the No. 20 UCLA Bruins, on Friday afternoon at the Rocky Mountain Tennis Center.

The loss drops CU’s record on the season to 6-12 (1-6 Pac-12), and UCLA’s victory improves its record to 12-4 (4-1 Pac-12).

“UCLA is a traditional powerhouse in the Pac-12,” said CU head coach Nicole Kenneally. “And today I really felt like we had some opportunities that we kind of let slip by us. We continue to put ourselves in great opportunities, and in those moments, we need to continue to play out games and make our competitors earn it from us, while we know we have to earn it from them.”
