Sophomore Jenny Saephan teamed up with new partner Megan Forbes at Number 1 doubles and continued the winning tradition she started with Paige Jolley in the first four matches of the season, handily beating their Eagles opponents 6-1, 6-4.Reconstituting their pairing from last year, seniors Kelsey Ellis and Brita Fisher picked up another win at Number 2 doubles, while Katie Shapiro and Mandi Malecki pulled off a 6-2, 6-4 result at number three.In singles, Number 1 Lindsay Sievers had an easy time of it in 6-0, 6-2 win. Sophomore Kylie Bozym was the other Falcon singles winner. But it took her a set to warm into her Number 4 match, taking a narrow 7-6 win in the first set before burying her opponent 6-0 in the second set."
