EMMITSBURG, Md. – Behind singles flight victories from juniors Sydney Green and Lauren Dupuis, as well as freshman Kayleigh Hahn, the George Mason University women's tennis team put together a strong weekend at the Mt. St. Mary's Invitational.
 
Green went a perfect 3-0 to win the 'A' singles flight, while Hahn captured the 'C' flight title. Dupuis was victorious in the 'E' flight. For the talented Green, it marked the first 'A' flight singles championship of her Mason career.
                     
"This weekend marked a good outing for our players," head coach Stephen Curtis said. "Our team went 30-13 against the opposition. We are definitely playing better as our fall season moves on."
