The Louisville Lady Leopards Girls Tennis team fell to the visiting Canfield Cardinals 4-1 in the Beatty's Sports Leopard Skin Grey Hoodieopening round of the Ohio Tennis Coaches’ Association Team Tournament Tuesday. With the loss, Louisville is now 0-2 on the season.

Kayla Pukys was the only victorious Leopard as she defeated Taya El-Hayek 7-6 (7-3), 6-1 in #3 Singles. Louisville fell in straight sets at every other position.

With the loss, the Lady Leopards are now 0-2 against the Lady Cardinals all-time. Canfield won the only other meeting 3-2 back on September 16, 2002. This marks the first time Louisville has lost more than one dual match in a season in 2009 and the first time the Lady Leopards have lost consecutive dual matches since 2008. However, this statistic does not count the Orrville Invitational Tournament in which they dominated in between.
