The Utes took two difficult losses on the doubles side. Margo Pletcher and Brianna Turley defeated Katerina Stloukalova and Georgia Lawson, 7-6 (5-0). Petrovic and Turley fell to Emma Wilson and Galina Bykova, 7-6 (4-0) while Taylor Calton and Jena Cheng fell to Olivia Noble and Ndindi Ndunda, 6-2.
