Tiffin University (28-2) pulled off a dramatic comeback against Northwood, winning 4-3 to advance to the NCAA Division II Midwest Regional 2 finals.

Tiffin's Sarah Roy won the deciding match, battling back from 5-3 down in the second set  to win in straight sets 6-4, 7-5. 

Tiffin battled back all day, as the Dragons fell behind after doubles play 1-0. Anaelle Lepinay/Maeva Maxch fell 6-4 and Celine Ferron/Sarah Roy lost 6-2 as the Timberwolves jumped ahead.

Jemimah Choi posted a strong 6-1, 6-1 win to even the score 1-1, but singles losses by Lepinay 6-2, 6-2 and Emily Barrett 6-2, 6-1 put Northwood one point from victory at 3-1.
