Texas A&M gave the Tigers their third conference loss of the season. The Tigers are 6-3 on the season as they head home from College Station. After a two and a half hour rain delay, the match moved indoors where the Tigers fell short of a win.
Urska Juric and Katka Sevcikova rebounded from yesterday's doubles loss by winning the #1 position. The Tigers couldn't find the right combination to win the remaining doubles so they needed four singles wins to bring home a victory. Only Junior Hana Kraftova pulled out a singles win against A&M's Roberta Spencer.
The Tigers head home to play Oklahoma State Friday, Oklahoma Saturday, and Iowa Sunday at the Green Tennis Center.
