Box Score FULTON, Mo. - No. 20 William Woods University (7-7) was scheduled to face NCAA Division II Southwest Baptist University (7-5) for its regular-season finale Thursday at Suzanne Neal Memorial Tennis Complex. However, the match was canceled due to rain after doubles play, in which the Owls won the doubles point.

"Amazing doubles from our girls today. Unfortunately, we were unable to finish the singles due to the weather, but we're glad we secured the doubles point," William Woods tennis coach Abigail Lemberger Hughes said.
