Box Score Freshman Elizabeth Girian captured the No. 5 singles match on Saturday, but that was it for the Colorado College women's tennis team, which fell to Colorado Mesa University, 6-1, at Memorial Park.
 
The Roadrunners jumped out to an early 1-0 lead by sweeping the three doubles matches. Gigi Jensen and Malia Rivera posted the best result for the Tigers, dropping a 6-3 decision to Lauren Thomas and Julianna Campos at the No. 3 spot.
 
Girian, playing her first match at the No. 5 spot this season, defeated Thomas, 7-5, 6-4. Keelie Bennett put together a solid match at the No. 1 position, but fell to Issy Coman, 3-6, 6-4, 1-0(4). The Mavericks won the other four singles matches in straight sets.
