The women's tennis team played the third match in four days as they hosted St. Joseph's. The Hawks handed the Patriots a 5-2 defeat in the first meeting as A-10 opponents.

Mason opened the scoring by winning at #2 and #3 doubles to take the first point. The Hawks tied the score when Eisenbrand defeated Yang at #2 singles. They widened the lead as they won at #4 and #3 singles. Mason needed to win the last three singles matches to win the overall match. St. Joseph's secured the win when Brittany Pilkington fell to Aurora Davis in a long battle that went three long sets.

Olivia Lacy-Thompson garnered the only singles victory for the Patriots when she finished off Claire Minnoe in two straight sets.
