LAWRENCE, Kan. – Omaha Women's Tennis (2-3) fell to Kansas (5-0) 0-7 at the Jayhawk Tennis Center on Friday evening.

In doubles, the Mavericks lost two of the three doubles matchups by scores of 2-6 and the other ending 3-6.

Sophomore Khayli Buckels gave Kansas's Heike Janse Van Vuuren a tough matchup but fell 3-6, 6-7 (7).

Freshman Katelynn Kock provided one of the best efforts for Omaha on Friday as she batted but lost to Yerkezhan Arystanbekova 6-7 (7), 4-6 at the Jayhawk Tennis Center.  

"We had chances to win sets, we just came up short," Summit added. "Kansas played great in key situations. We got a lot better from last week to now. We hope that trend continues and be better for next week."
