In singles competition, Bungo, the top seed, lost to Yvonne Niederbracht of Indiana (Pa.) 6-4, 6-2.

Bungo and Michaux, the top seed in doubles, beat Niederbracht and her partner, Jackie Kulp (the No. 2 seed) in doubles, 8-4.

Bungo and Michaux, ranked No. 9 in the country with a 28-2 record this spring, defeated Clarion's Melanie Frank and Ashley Rhodes 8-2 and Millersville's Kate Opilo and Morgan Burdette.

In singles, Bungo (30-4, No. 20 nationally) defeated Bloomsburg's Emily Murphy 6-4, 6-3 and Kulp 6-2, 6-0 before receiving a semifinal default win from Michaux.
