CHARLESTON, West Virginia - The Bluefield women's tennis team traveled to compete in the NCAA Regional Championships for the first time in school history. Sunday afternoon the Big Blue took on the Yellow Jackets of West Virginia State University.

The Big Blue were looking to redeem themselves against the Yellow Jackets after a 6-1 loss on April 9. The team stood tall but ultimately fell in the face of some very tough competition, 4-0.

Bluefield State got down early losing the doubles point. The Big Blue tried fighting back in the singles matches but couldn't find a way to defeat the Yellow Jackets. Juliana Jimenez dropped the number three position 6-1,6-1.

Paula Saez fell short in the number six position 6-2,6-2. Ghita Courdi fought hard but also fell short 6-4, 6-4. Shreya Chakrabarly won her first set 6-2, lost the second set 5-2 and Chakrabarly did not get a chance to finish due to the Yellow Jackets already having enough wins. 

Although the women's tennis season has come to an end, the women's tennis team made history this weekend.
