Tomasetti bested Arizona State's Ilze Hattingh in commanding fashion, 6-2, 6-1, on Sunday in the Lumberjacks' dual match opener. Tomasetti won the matchup between the two nationally-ranked players at No. 1 singles. Tomasetti is ranked No. 57 nationally, while Hattingh is currently slotted at No. 41.
The victory was Tomasetti's third this year over a nationally-ranked opponent between the fall and spring seasons.
Tomasetti and junior

The NAU women's tennis team will return to the court on Friday, Feb. 7 at Arizona at 3 p.m.
