Fall season ends for women's tennis, Huskies stumble at Redbird Invitational

DeKALB — The women’s tennis team finished its fall season Sunday with the Redbird Invitational at Illinois State University where NIU failed to pickup a bracket finish better than fourth place.

"This was a tough tournament for us," said Head Coach Eric Burns in an NIU athletics news release. "We had prepared well, but just didn't get the results we were hoping for. We did play much better on day two and brought better energy which was a goal of ours for the weekend."

In three separate singles brackets, junior Maria Potsi and sophomore teammates Christy Robinson and Julia Dimitrieva picked up fourth place, the best finishes for NIU in the tournament.
