Sept. 26, 2009 Wheaton College handed Luther only its second loss of the season, a 6-3 decision in Wheaton, Ill., this afternoon.
Luther trailed 2-1 after doubles play picking up its lone win at #2 by Alana Humpal and Katie Nichols by a score of 8-2.
Wheaton added four more points in singles play en route to the victory. Fran Fairfield (pictured) at #2 posted a three set victory, while Brynne Zinnecker won in straight sets at #3.
The second match of the afternoon saw Luther cruise to straight set victories in all six singles matches and dropped just two games in doubles play, as the Norse defeated Elmhurst 9-0. The 9-0 victory was the fifth of the season for the team.
The split this afternoon gives Luther an overall record of 10-2.
The Norse will return to action one week from today when they will travel to Central College to play the Dutch and Simpson College. The Central match will begin at Noon, followed by the Simpson match at 4:00 p.m.
