In the first home match of the season, BYU women's tennis fell, 4-3, to Denver on Saturday at the BYU indoor courts.

"I was happy with the way we performed in doubles today because we've been working on that a lot lately, and it was nice to pull out a tight doubles point," BYU head coach Lauren Jones-Spencer said. "In the singles matches that we lost, it wasn't a matter of them playing better than us, but more about us beating ourselves and reacting negatively."

The Cougars (1-2) started strong in doubles play with juniors Mayci Jones and Toby Miclat combining to win the first doubles matchup, 7-5, over the Pioneer's Julia O'Loughlin and Maureen Slatterly.
