#57 Huskies Defeat Pilots in Women’s Tennis Dual Opener

SEATTLE, Wash. – The No. 57 Washington Huskies beat No. 65-ranked Portland 6-1 on Sunday at the Nordstrom Tennis Center. Washington improves to 3-0 on the young season, while Portland falls to 0-1 in its spring dual debut.

Portland senior Lucia Butkovska scored Portland's lone point with a dominating 6-0, 6-2 victory over Nour Abbes at the No. 1 singles position.

Washington controlled the match from the early-going, sweeping all three doubles matches to take the 1-0 lead.

Butkovska's win evened the score, but the Huskies would go on to win four of the remaining five singles matches in straight sets.
