Boise, Idaho (October 9. 2004) The Women's tennis team continues to play well and progress as they took to the courts for the Boise Invitational.
"The girls played pretty good in the tournament," said Head Coach Craig Manning. "They are really progressing."
The University of Oregon, along with BYU, made the trip to Boise for the annual round robin Invitational.
"The tournament was good because we got to play a lot of matches," Manning said. "Nobody had a bad loss."
Rebecca Pike continues to have a strong fall by beating Oregon's Jamie Marshall and Anna Lekinska in singles play. She cruised past Marshall 6-1;6-2 and Lekinska 6-3;6-2. Saturday she dropped a tough three set match to Boise State's Carolina Pongratz 4-6;7-5;6-1.
