INDIANAPOLIS—The Bellarmine University women's tennis team fell 5-1 to Rockhurst in the quarterfinals of the Great Lakes Valley Conference Championship Tournament today in Indianapolis, ending the Knights' season with a 12-10 record.

Bellarmine got a point at the No. 1 doubles spot as Evann Waschuk and Hannah-Rose Hagan teamed for the 9-7 victory over Karsyn Betts and Christine Schatz.  The win was Hagan's 97^th of her career, leaving her just one shy of the Roebker sisters (Sarah and Emily) for third place in program history.

In the postseason, as soon as a team secures their fifth point, the match is ended.  Therefore, three singles matches remained unfinished. 

Rockhurst, the No. 2 seed from the GLVC West, will face Lewis in the semifinals. Lewis, the top seed from the East defeated William Jewell 5-0 in a quarterfinal match earlier today.
