The Sam Houston women's tennis team picked up some strong wins in another fall intercollegiate tournament shortened by rain.
The Bearkats participated Friday and Saturday in the Northwestern State Demon Classic. Sunday's final day action was canceled due to rain.
"We could have done better in doubles, but overall it was a good showing with some good wins in singles," SHSU head coach Jim Giachino said.
Nadia Dubyanskaya reached the finals of Flight Three singles and Kayla Stevenson reached the consolation finals in the same flight. Maddie Mortimore moved from Flight Three to Flight One and picked up two strong wins.
