WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. -- Lindsey Wilson women's tennis' eight-match winning streak came to a halt today with a 5-2 loss to Cumberlands (Ky.) at UC Tennis Complex.

The No. 17-ranked Patriots (12-2, 6-0 in the Mid-South Conference) won the doubles point and four of the six singles matches to secure the win. Lindsey Wilson falls to 8-2 overall and 5-1 in the MSC.

Alexandra Parra and Lucia Mora -- ranked 11th in the NAIA in doubles -- salvaged the only win in doubles for the Blue Raiders with a 7-6 (5) victory over Tomomi Nagao and Mikaela Fros in the top-seeded match.

Reshma Challarapu trimmed the deficit to 3-2 with a convincing 6-1, 6-1 win in the fourth-seeded match.

Cumberlands claimed the team win in the sixth-seeded match as Satsuki Mitani defeated Carla Alibert 7-5, 6-3. The Patriots added another three-set win in the finale to take the match 5-2.
