LOGAN, Utah - Boise State's women's tennis team came up on the short end of a 4-2 score Sunday afternoon to the Air Force Falcons in Logan, Utah. Holly Stewart led the Broncos versus the Falcons, recording victories at No. 3 singles and No. 2 doubles, but it was not enough as Boise State saw its three-match wins streak end. The loss moved the Blue and Orange to 7-4 overall, and 3-3 in Mountain West Conference play.

After the Falcons took the initial lead in the doubles competition with a win at the No. 1 position, the Broncos came back with victories on courts three and two, respectively. Pauline Ernstberger and Ana Conde Vendrell evened the doubles score at 1-1 with a 6-4 win at No. 3 doubles. Shauna Heffernan and Holly Stewart then clinched the team point for Boise State with a hard-fought 7-5 win on court two.

Tied at 1-1, Boise State's Stewart again put the Broncos on top when she won her No. 3 singles match. Stewart outlasted Alexis Odom in a set-one tiebreaker, then dominated the second set to take the contest 7-6(5), 6-0. The junior's 19th singles victory of the season is a team-high.

Air Force regrouped and finished the match with three straight singles victories on courts two, one, and five to close out the 4-2 team win.

Boise State will be back in action next weekend when they travel for the fourth consecutive week, this time to Laramie, Wyo., where they will face the Colorado State Rams and Wyoming Cowgirls April 15-16 in conference action.
