LAWRENCE, Kan. – Kristina Kudryavtseva battled back for her first collegiate victory, but the Wichita State women's tennis team fell 6-1 at Kansas on Saturday afternoon at the Jayhawk Tennis Center.

The singles lineup for WSU (0-1) included four newcomers. Three of them were making their collegiate dual match debuts against a Kansas team that is receiving votes in the ITA's early season top-25 rankings and advanced to the second round of last year's NCAA tournament.

Kudryavtseva – a freshman from Moscow, Russia -- dropped her opening set at No. 5 singles but swept the second and carried that momentum into the tiebreaker for a 5-7, 6-0, (10-4) victory.
