UTSA (2-2) fell to the host New Mexico (3-2), snapping a two-match winning streak during the stretch, which included wins over Cameron and Abilene Christian.
Plauth (Florianopolis, Brazil) won her singles match in the second spot, 6-2, 6-4. Freshman Jasmin Starr (Templestowe, Victoria, Australia) and junior Laura Cabrera (Barcelona, Spain) had their singles matches halted after UNM clinched, with Cabrera leading in the decisive third and Starr just shy of forcing a third set.
