POUGHKEEPSIE, NEW YORK – The Marist women's tennis team picked up their third conference win in a row as they downed an undermanned Manhattan Jaspers squad, 7-0, Monday afternoon at the East Campus Tennis Pavilion.
Forced to default on the no. 5 and no. 6 singles matches and the no. 3 doubles match the Jaspers faced a tall task in defeating an already hot Marist squad. The no. 1 doubles team of junior Karly Pang (Kaneohe, Hawaii) and freshman Claire Schmitz (Scotia, N.Y.) made quick work of the Jasper's pairing of Caitlin Bricketto and Alyssa Rosello as they wrapped up the doubles point with an impressive 8-1 victory.
The doubles team of sophomore Callie Morlock (Golden, Colo.) and Elizabeth Brozovich (Port Huron, Mich.) won the other doubles match, 8-4 over Manhattan's Gabriella Leon and Diana Onichsehnko.
The Red Foxes continued to dominate in singles play as well. Junior Nikki Rohan (Mountain Lakes, N.J.), Pang, Schmitz, and Morlock all won their singles matches in straight sets.
“Today was a very good win for us we need to keep this momentum going,” said head coach Jason Sacher. “We're on a pretty good roll now.”
With the win the Red Foxes improve to 3-9 overall and 3-1 in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play. The Red Foxes hit the road for some more non-conference action later this week as they travel to take on Stony Brook on Friday, April 10. Time to be announced.
