NOTRE DAME, Ind. - Michigan senior Debra Streifler won a third-set tiebreaker at No. 4 singles against Vanessa Heute in the final contest remaining to end a match that lasted three hous and 58 minuts and give the Wolverines (17-7) a 4-3 victory over Nebraska (17-10) in the opening round of the NCAA Division I Women's Tennis Championship Friday morning in the Eck Tennis Pavilion at the University of Notre Dame.
The score was tied 2-2, with a trio of three-set affairs remaining.
