Box Score The Omaha Mavericks Women's Tennis team fell just short last night to Creighton in their 2023 home debut. A battle all the way to the final point, Creighton edged the Mavericks, 4-3.
"Every year we have a long, very competitive match with Creighton. Last night was no exception. A lot of good came out of this for us. We didn't get the result we wanted, but we played really well and showed some real grit. I hope we can continue to battle the way we do and get the ball to roll our way a few more times than before."
