“We had a rough day today,” BYU head coach Carrie Roberts said. “We need to get the rust off and bring it tomorrow.”
The Cougars lost to Washington State 4.5-0.5 in their first matchup of the day, with Annick Haczkiewicz picking up BYU’s only points after finishing all-square with Marie Lund-Hansen in their head-to-head match.
