Pullman, Washington – The Santa Clara women's tennis team sustained its first loss of the season today to No. 72 Washington State 4-3. The Broncos are 6-1 on the season and 1-0 in the WCC.

Santa Clara put up a fight at the No. 1 and 2 doubles positions, as well as the No. 1 singles position, but the Cougars secured the match with the remaining matches to win 4-3.
