Women’s Tennis Bests La Salle to Extend Win Streak

Saints Take Down A-10 Foe to Reach Three-Match Win Streak

The Siena Saints women's tennis team got their second win in Pennsylvania, and third in a row on Saturday afternoon as they defeated the La Salle Explorers 6-1. Freshman Laura Becker and Sarah Marro were the story of the day, each recording their first collegiate victories.

In doubles, Becker and Marro teamed up and beat their opponents at the 3 by a final of 6-0. The Saints lanced through all three doubles matches, winning all three for the point.

In singles, Siena went on to take 5 of 6 singles courts with the clinch coming on court 3 by way of senior Anessa Leyva. Courts 4-6 were able to play eight point pro sets since the match was decided on the earlier courts.

The Green and Gold return to action tomorrow, Feb. 17 when they head to Lehigh to wrap up the third stop of their Pennsylvania swing. First serve goes up at 10 a.m.
