Sophomores Alicia Doms and Yana Mavrina got TU started on the winning side in the Round of 32 doubles bouts, defeating Marie-Frederique Bedard and Sarah Henderson of Penn State, 8-5. The duo came up against a solid Penn tandem of Stephanie Do and Alex Ion in the Round of 16, falling 8-1.
Also successful in their opening doubles match were newcomers Agnese Rozite and Rebecca Breland.
