Women's club tennis takes pair of wins

Last Saturday and Sunday the Virginia women's club tennis team picked up two wins over in-state foes, traveling to both James Madison and Virginia Tech.

Saturday, the Cavaliers were led by wins from seniors Nicole Griglione, Shannon Christensen and Krissie Morris, juniors Sandy McCarthy and Courtenay Evans, sophomore Amanda Moy and freshmen Lucy and Mallori Browne. The Cavaliers topped the Dukes by a final margin of 12-0.

Sunday, Virginia arrived in Blacksburg to face the Hokies, eventually garnering another sweep. With wins from McCarthy, Jackie Culver, Christing Muguruza, Shoa Tavassoli, Browne and Leigh Schoettinger, the Cavaliers captured a 9-0 win in the Collegiate Club Tennis Association championships.

This comes on the heels of Griglione, Muguruza, Culver, Schoettinger, Browne and Jessica Rackley's trip to the National club tournament where they took a third place finish.
