Cyclones Fall to No.30 Horned Frogs, 4-0

04.09.2017 | Tennis

FORT WORTH, Texas – The Iowa State tennis team (15-8, 1-6 Big 12) dropped its dual to No. 30 TCU (12-7, 4-3 Big 12) on Sunday by a score of 4-0. The match was moved indoors due to wind in the Lone Star state.

The Cyclones fought early in doubles matches but TCU eventually grabbed the 1-0 lead with wins at the No. 2 and No. 3 positions. Without Samantha Budai in the lineup, Annabella Bonadonna moved up to pair with Maty Cancini in the top spot.

Iowa State was ultimately defeated by TCU when the Horned Frogs notched their fourth Big 12 win with victories from their No.2, 4 and 5 athletes.

The Cyclones have the week off before their final home stint against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. They will take on the Oklahoma Sooners on Friday, April 21 at 3:00 p.m. Then they will face off against the Oklahoma State Cowgirls on Sunday, April 23 at 10:00 a.m. for their final dual match of the season.
