The Patriots notched their six straight win today as they defeated Monmouth 6-1 at the Mason courts. The win was also the ninth out of the last ten contests.
The Patriots were able to sweep the doubles competition to take the doubles point when the pairings of Esu Erdenebat/Jane Awad, Brittany Pilkington/Scarlett Walston and Olivia Lacy-Thompson/Mina Saygi all won.
Mason took five of the six singles matches as Scarlett Walston, Brittany Pilkington, Morgan Yang, Mina Sayg and Marijke Boers all won in straight sets. The lone Monmouth point came at #1 singles when Adriana Armendariz outlasted Jane Awad, 7-6, 6-7, 10-3.
“After a long day on the road and an emotional win yesterday, this was a tough match mentally,” commented Coach Stephen Curtis. “But we were able to take care of business”.
The Patriots move to 15-7 on the season and will return to action on Sunday when they will be the Game of the Week as they host their Senior Day in a double dual match against Mt. St. Mary's beginning at 1:00pm.
