SAN RAFAEL, Calif. — The Dominican University of California women's tennis team secured a crucial rain-shortened victory, 6-1, over visiting Dixie State on Tuesday.

On Sunday, the Penguins (4-7) staked an early 2-1 lead in doubles play before rain delayed the match. The match resumed on Tuesday and was played to a first-of-five format, though the final two matches finished within minutes of one another. Solveig Karlsen and Alex Wartenberg each notched a 6-0, 6-1 victory at No. 5 and No. 3 singles. Kelly Zwicker secured the win with a 6-1, 6-1 victory at No. 4 singles.
