Belmont 4, Drake 3
Drake was once again playing a woman short, meaning they had to forfeit the final doubles match. Even with the disadvantage, the Bulldogs beat out the Bruins in doubles play. Drake's top doubles tandem of Ines Stephani and Rebecca Ehn took down Belmont's top duo of Mariia Hlahola and Anastasi Zholdakova 6-3 to keep Drake's doubles point prospect alive.
