Lauren Prince and Anais Geslin got things going with a 6-2 win at No. 1 doubles, but both other Dragon doubles pairings were defeated as PNW took the doubles point.

Prince had a great comeback win at No. 3, as after dropping the first set 6-1, she evened things up with a 6-1 win of her own before taking the deciding set 7-6 for TU's fifth point.
The Dragons improve to 1-0 on the season, and will next travel to the BGSU Invite next weekend on Sept. 13 and 14.
