The Iowa women’s tennis team snapped a six-match losing streak with a win against Drake in Des Moines on Wednesday.

Iowa started strong, winning the doubles point. Annette Dohanics and Anastasia Reimchen started off hot in the doubles matches at the No. 1 spot, beating Mela Jaglarz and Mariel Ante (6-2).

The Hawkeyes followed with a loss at No. 3 from Kristen Thoms and Taylor Tamblyn against Bulldogs Summer Brills and Joely Lomas (6-3).

Iowa’s Aimee Tarun and Adorabol Huckleby clinched the doubles point, defeating Maddie Johnson and Tess Herder (6-2).

“Good team win for us today,” said head coach Katie Dougherty in a release. “We won the doubles point, which felt good to get back on track with that. Drake competed well today, as we knew they would; we always have great matches with them, and I’m proud of the way we battled today.”

The first singles win for Iowa came from Montana Crawford over Jaglarz at the No. 6 spot (6-2, 6-0). Crawford has started well for the Hawkeyes in the singles matches this season, stringing together a 3-0 record.

“Montana did a nice job at No. 6 putting the second point on the board, and Anastasia was down 3-0 in the first set and found a way to battle back and win it,” Dougherty said. “Kristen played a tiebreaker to clinch it for us.”

Reimchen backed up Crawford by defeating Ante (7-5, 6-2). Drake’s Lomas then defeated Tarun at the No. 5 spot (6-3, 6-7), but Thoms clinched the victory for Iowa by beating Herder (6-4, 7-6).

“It felt great to clinch for the first time for my team,” she said in a release. “I felt confident going into the tiebreaker that I would win it. I didn’t play my best tennis today, but I competed hard, and I’m happy to get the win for the team.”

Zoe Douglas (2-6, 6-3, 4-3) and Huckleby (4-6, 6-3, 2-3) had their matches abandoned against Johnson and Brills.
