Women’s Tennis
Semifinal loss similar to last year
In the second-to-last weekend of fall play for the Michigan’s women’s tennis team, sophomore Tania Mahtani dropped just one set en route to the semifinals of the Wilson/ITA Midwest Regional Championshps hosted in Ann Arbor.
Mahtani defeated her quarterfinal opponent in straight sets yesterday morning, but fell short in the semifinals, losing to the tournament’s second seed, 6-2, 6-1.
Last year, then-sophomore Chisako Sugiyama also reached the semifinals of the tournament before falling in consecutive sets.
The tournament counts just for individual national rankings and doesn’t affect team scoring.
