Rain Dampens Women's Tennis' First Day at ITA Midwest Regional

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – Eastern Michigan's women's tennis team's participation at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Midwest Regional had a soggy start Thursday, Oct. 12, as rain held a lasting impact on the event at the University of Michigan.

Instead of matches being held both indoors and outdoors, the rain limited action all day and forced the tournament inside for nearly its entirety.

The only EMU netter in action Thursday was junior Marie Mayerova (Krmelin, Czech Republic), who won her opening match against Maruqette, 6-1, 6-1, before falling in a tight match to Northern Illinois, 7-6, 6-4.
