The Bulldogs won all three doubles matches to earn the doubles point, as Gabriella Weissmann (Simi Valley, Calif.) and Sarah Lucas (Las Vegas, Nev.) came closest to a win at No. 2 doubles, but could not overcome Franziska Koehler and Melanie Yates.
Weissmann earned a win at No. 4 singles over Koehler, 6-2, 6-3, but Gonzaga won four of the other five matches in straight sets, earning five total singles victories.
The Redhawks have a weekend off from competition before hosting Arizona at Sand Point on Saturday, Mar. 8 at 10 a.m., which will serve as the team’s Senior Day.
