Women's Tennis Falls to Newbury
Box Score
NEW LONDON, Conn. - The Mitchell College women's tennis team
dropped an 8-1 decision to Newbury College on Saturday afternoon at
New London High School.
The Nighthawks (5-3 overall, 2-1 NECC) started the day by winning
two of three doubles matches and then went on to sweep all six
singles contests. The match at No. 1 singles was the only one that
Newbury didn't win in straight sets. Jillian Wojtowicz and
freshman Erica Fazio split the first two sets before playing a
tiebreaker in lieu of a third set. Wojtowicz, who cruised to a 6-1
win in the first set, rebounded from a 6-3 loss in the second set
to earn a 10-5 victory in the tiebreaker.
The lone victory for the Mariners (0-6 overall, 0-3 NECC) came at
No. 2 doubles, where senior Miah Manning teamed with freshman
Carly Crozer for an 8-5 win over Newbury's Alexandra
Derderian and Stephanie Valentine.
Mitchell will next host Becker College on Monday, September 28 at
3:30 p.m.
