The play of junior Denise Muresan highlighted the Wolverines’ efforts in singles competition, winning both of her matches in straight sets. Because she was the only player to win yesterday (6-2, 6-2), Muresan will advance to the quarterfinals of the main draw today.
No. 74 junior Rika Tatsuno is the only other Michigan player to get a win in the main draw on Saturday before losing yesterday (6-1, 6-2).
Freshman Taylor Fournier continued to play well in the first singles competition of her collegiate career, coming off of a flight title in the Kentucky Invitational two weeks ago. Fournier won both of her qualifying matches before losing her first set in the main draw.
The Wolverines also had strong outings in doubles play, going 6-3 overall.
