SAN DIEGO, Calif. - The Gonzaga University women's tennis team was defeated 6-0 in the second round of the West Coast Conference Championships on Saturday afternoon. With the loss the Bulldogs drop to 8-15 on the season and will play the University of Portland in a 9 a.m. match in San Diego, Calif. on Sunday.

In a departure from the normal procedure of a dual, the two teams played the singles portion first due to weather constraints in the San Diego area. Santa Clara swept all six singles matches with Kanelle Kaloi defeating Angela Fry 3-6, 6-0, 6-1 in the N o. 1 spot. In the No. 2 spot Kelly Leathers defeated Amanda Becker 6-4, 6-1.
