PHILADELPHIA, PA – Women's tennis continued their busy schedule with a morning matchup at Temple earlier today. It was a tough day for the Knights, who fell to the Owl's 1-6 with only one singles win. Junior Namie Isago took the sole victory for the burgundy and blue, defeating Samantha Nanere 7-6 (7-2), 6-2. That marks win number 14 for the Brazil native who currently sits at eighth in the NEC for overall wins.
