The Marquette pair went on in consolation play to be defeated by fellow Golden Eagles Bonnelly and Smith, who lost their first match, 8-2, to Lisa Maloney and Romer of Bowling Green.

Charron said the team showed improvements since its last tournament.

“I think we all played better than our last tournament,” she said. “But it’s hard to tell because it is so individual and you don’t know how other people are feeling about their game.”

The team will play next at the Arizona State tournament in Mesa, Ariz., Oct. 10-12.
