COLCHESTER, VT– The Merrimack College women's tennis
team (3-9, 3-4 NE-10) dropped an 8-1 decision Tuesday afternoon to
the Saint Michael's College Purple Knights (10-7, 9-3 NE-10).
“It was a tough day at the office,” said head coach

take away from today's match is Cristina pulling out a win in
the third set.”

the lone winner for the Warriors on the afternoon, going three sets
in a super tiebreak win at No. 1 singles. With four straight
wins at singles play, Lucin improved to 8-0 in dual match contests
