FROM THE SOURCE
Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"Nice to get a much-needed win for the women to even our record at 3 and 3. We lost two heartbreakers last weekend as we weren't at full strength. Today our doubles swept and looked fantastic as did our top three singles Amelia, Emme, and Addie, with Natalie clinching at 6.
"We look to continue the momentum with a big weekend coming up against Merrimack and Binghamton."
