Daniela Rivera won a doubles match in Boone as well, 6-3. With Wednesday's win, the Bucs are now 1-3 on the season.
Lipscomb enters this weekend's action with a 3-1 record. The Bisons, who were picked to finish second in the Atlantic Sun Preseason Poll, have won matches against Tennessee State (6-1), Western Kentucky (5-2), and Eastern Illinois (7-0) but dropped one to Middle Tennessee State, 4-3.
