Once Julia Kutz (So., Sheridan, Wyo.) started the No. 2 singles slot with a 6-1, 6-0 win, the Raiders were untouchable.

In the singles wins, Raider athletes only fell in two games, with Vandersall sweeping her two-set victory 6-0, 6-0.

The doubles pair of Anderson and Kutz won a close 6-4 set in the No. 1 slot, while the No. 2 team of Vandersall and Olya Furmanova (Fr., Minsk, Belarus) capped off the dominant team win with a 6-2 victory.

Northwestern has now won their last two and four of the last five matches.
