GCU heads to Las Vegas for 4th fall event of 2021
The Grand Canyon women's tennis team will conclude its fall season this weekend at the Watanabe Classic, hosted by UNLV.
The Lopes will compete against seven teams in their fourth and final fall event, including Texas Tech, Iowa, Utah and WAC opponent Dixie State, across five singles draws and three doubles draws.
GCU junior Natasha Puehse will compete in the top singles draw while teammates Fabienne Schmidt and Santa Strombacha battle in the second and third singles flights.
Puehse and Strombacha, the reigning WAC Doubles Players of the Month, will compete in the top doubles flight. Schmidt and fifth-year teammate Autum Prudhomme will compete in the second flight while newcomers Sara Rakim and Valentina Del Marco team up in the third flight.
The Lopes last competed in October at the ITA Southwest Regional. Puehse and sophomore Aline Buhr each picked up singles wins in the 128-player main draw. In doubles, Puehse and Strombacha defeated Arizona's Parker Fry and Lexi Ryngler 7-5 in the first round.
