WARSAW, Ind. - The 4th-seeded Grace women's tennis team suffered a disappointing loss in the quarterfinal round of the Crossroads League Tournament, dropping a 4-3 decision to 5th-seeded Huntington. The match was played indoors at the Eastlake Tennis Club in Warsaw.

Grace defeated Huntington 6-0 less than two weeks ago, but that match was much closer than the final score indicated. This time the Foresters started off strong, claiming the important doubles point before winning three singles contests to confirm a spot in the Crossroads League semifinals.

Morgan Mast and Jenna Lewis teamed up to win at No. 3 doubles by a score of 6-3. The pair then won their individual matches, Mast taking No. 3 singles 6-3, 3-6, 10-3, and Lewis winning No. 5 singles 6-4, 6-4. The other victory for the Lancers came at No. 6 singles where Kiersten Martin won 6-1, 6-2.

The match of the day ended up being at No. 1 singles. Lydia Ruegsegger won the first set 7-5 for Grace, but Huntington's Morgan Fitzpatrick came back to clinch the match by taking the next two sets 7-6, 6-2.

The Lancers will take to the courts again on September 28 when they host Concordia (Mich.).
