Ann Arbor, Mich. - After a long weekend of competition at the ITA Midwest Regionals hosted by the University of Michigan, the Rockets completed play on Saturday.

Junior Dee Dee Leenabanchong was the last Rocket standing, fighting her way through the qualifiers to compete in Saturday's main draw. Leenabanchong fell early in the main draw bracket to Wisconsin's Ava Markham, 2-6, 7-5, 6-2.

"Dee Dee was in control of most of the match, so it was disappointing for her not to close," said head coach Tracy Mauntler. "But this has been a great tournament for Dee Dee and her confidence is soaring right now."

The Rockets return to action Nov. 2-4 at the MAC Invitational in Boca Raton, Florida.
