The Broncos are 4-0 all-time versus Chicago State, including a 7-0 win last season. 

SCOUTING THE GOLDEN EAGLES
Marquette defeated Chattanooga on Sunday to improve to 3-5 on the season. They return two All-Big East selections, in senior's Fleur Eggink and Milica Novakovic. 

The Broncos lead the all-time series with the Golden Eagles 22-10. 

UNI RECAP
Western Michigan won its second consecutive match on Saturday morning, shutting out Northern Iowa at the West Hills Athletic Club by a 7-0 score.

It marked the first ever meeting between the Broncos and the Panthers in women's college tennis.  

BRONCOS SHOW DEPTH

Sophomore Taylor Smith and freshman Lindsey Zieglar teamed up for the first time this year, beating Thaissa Moreira and Olivia Fain at No. 3 doubles 6-3 on Saturday.
