The Concordia women's tennis team opened their spring season with a match against St. Edward's Friday morning.
 
The Tornados fell overall to the Hilltoppers 9-0 in matches. The doubles team of Serena Segel and Juliette Garza tried to rally late, but it was not enough as they lost the pro set 8-3.
 
There were strong performances in the singles matches. Genna Ellinwood fell in the first set 6-1, but played in the second but was unable to come from behind in the second set losing 6-2. Camille Kempf gave quite the challenge in the first set, only broken twice, and dropping the set 6-3. In the second set, Kempf's rallies were not enough, and lost the second set.
