Friday was the dual-match debut for freshman sensation Megan Bradley, who defeated LMU's Andrea Lord, 6-1, 6-2 at No. 1 singles. Fellow freshman Sarah Gregg was also victorious in her first collegiate dual match, downing Angelina Zdorovytska, 7-6(3), 6-3 in the No. 3 slot.

UCLA senior Petya Marinova did not play today while nursing an injury, but is expected to return to the court tomorrow when the Bruins host No. 24 Pepperdine at the LATC beginning at Noon.
