Once again. #1 player Xu won 7-5, 7-5, and #3 player Sadie Dedon won in three sets 1-6, 6-3, and 10-4 in super-tiebreaker. Bellevue’s #6 Lorraine Eng almost pulled off a win losing in three tough sets. Finally, in the second match on Sunday the Bulldogs went up against George Fox University and lost 8-1, with the bright spot again being provided by Xu who won her third match of the weekend 6-4, 6-0.
