Junior Jenny Moinard and sophomore Mia Smith also took down Anteaters Vivien Dvali and Stephanie Nguyen, 6-3, on court one.

In singles, Buth was the first to notch a win, owning Dvali 6-1, 6-2 in the top seed, while Nadozie dominated Tilbury 6-2, 6-0 on court five. Moinard’s 6-0, 6-2 finish over Chen in the fourth seed clinched the dual for the Aztecs.
