DES MOINES, Iowa – Drake women's tennis was back in action on Saturday afternoon for the Bulldogs' final home match of the 2026 regular season. The Dogs and Braves were knotted up late, but visiting Bradley left Des Moines with a 4-3 result.

Bradley's No. 2 doubles team of Compassion Tsai and Anna Belogliadova started things off with a victory, but Drake was able to rebound for the collective point. Maja Dodik and Jordane Dookie won in the top spot before Shiori Takeda and Milana Dejanovic wrapped up doubles action with a pair of wins.

The Braves jumped out in singles play with the first three wins of the section. But Drake fought all the way back to knot things up as Jordane Dookie and Maja Dodik earned a pair of 2-set wins at No. 4 and No. 1, respectively.

Bradley had the last laugh, though, as Chia-En Hsieh outlasted Dejanovic for a 7-6(4), 6-4 result. Hsieh's effort gave the Braves the 4-3 decision.

Drake will finish its regular season on the road with two more matches. The Bulldogs will visit Valparaiso on April 18 before traveling to Chicago for a date with the Flames of UIC on April 19.
