BOULDER – Colorado tennis junior Sara Nayar took down her second ranked opponent of the weekend Sunday afternoon here to clinch a 4-3 defeat of Washington State.
We re super proud of the girls today we ve had a tough stretch the last six weeks or so and we just kept telling the girls we just got to keep sticking with it and stay together, stick with it and control the things that we can control, said assistant coach Anthony Nguyen Pham. We played better on Friday against Washington and today was another step in the right direction. Some of these matches they re so close and it s just a couple points here and there. Today we were fortunate to come out on the positivie side. We re just really proud of the ladies for the way they competed today, and just leaving it out there. Win or lose we left it out there and happy for them we really earned this one.

BOULDER – The University of Colorado women s tennis team defeated Wyoming, 7-0, here Saturday afternoon to remain undefeated at home this season.
We re happy about today, a little up and down in doubles, but at the end we were able to get back to our aggressive ways and come up with the wins, said head coach Danielle Steinberg. We didn t get a lot of rhythm during the match, but we were able to keep calm and do what we need to do to maintain our momentum. Like I say every week, we just want to get better every week. I think we did that today. We have a big weekend coming up with BYU coming here and us going to Denver. Those are two great opportunities for us to play high level teams, so I m hoping to have a good week of practice and be ready for Friday.
