The Arizona women's tennis team just missed upsetting No. 10 Texas yesterday in Austin, Texas, losing 4-3.

The defeat dropped the Wildcats to 4-5 on the season, while UT improved to 9-1.

Arizona won three of the six singles matches in the meet, but won just one doubles match.

Juniors Maja Mlakar and Dianne Hollands notched the UA's only doubles point, defeating the Longhorn tandem of Katie Ruckert and Kendra Strohm, 8-4. Junior Kelly Perry and senior Debbie Larocque came up short against Petra Dizdar and Mia Marovic, 8-5. UA freshman Jessie Rochefort and sophomore Iza Ferreira closed out doubles play with a narrow loss to Kelly Baritot and Ristine Olson in a tiebreak, 9-8.

In singles action, Hollands beat Dizdar, the No. 18 player in the nation, 6-2, 6-2. Mlakar followed suit, beating Katie Ruckert 6-3, 5-7, (10-6). Ferreira also scored a win in the final position, 6-3, 6-7, (10-4) over Ristine Olson. Larocque, Kasia Jakowlew and Rochefort lost their singles matches.

Arizona hosts UCLA and Southern California this weekend. Play begins Friday at 1:30 p.m. against the Bruins at the Robson Tennis Center.
