(AZUSA, Calif.) No. 20 PLNU Women's Tennis had its hopes for a first road win of the season spoiled by No. 15 Azusa Pacific, with the Cougars taking down the Sea Lions 6-1 on Friday.
 
"It was a tough match against APU today for the women," Head Coach Curt Wheeler said. "They competed well, but didn't win enough of the big points."
 
Angelique Friedrich and Joelle Lanz teamed up to win their No. 3 doubles matchup, 6-2, but the Cougars won the other two doubles contests to capture the doubles point.
 
Friedrich then claimed her No. 3 singles match, coming back from a first set loss to win the final two sets 6-2, 6-3.
 
But APU had already clinched the match at that point, winning the first five singles matches to finish.
 
Amanda Letzring was the next-closest Sea Lion to win in singles, dropping a competitive match at No. 4, 4-6, 5-7.
 
Point Loma (2-3 overall) has a quick turnaround before hosting Redlands on Saturday at 11 a.m.
