Saints Singles Take Flight in Win Over Le Moyne

De Faber-Schumacher comes through with clinching victory

When the Siena Women's Tennis team needed it most, their singles players stepped up in what became a 4-3 white knuckle victory at Le Moyne on Saturday. 
 
The Saints (2-6) received a victory from No. 6 singles player Madeleine De Faber-Schumacher to cement it after a stretched match that required a tie-breaker in the first set. 
 
Other singles' wins came from No. 1 Laia Giralt, No. 2 Andrea Vargas and No. 5 Manuela Gomez.
 
"This was a full team win," said Siena first-year head coach Alex Van Cott.
 
"We will continue to build towards conference play. Shout out to Maddy for the hard-fought clinch."
 
De Faber-Schumacher, a junior from Phoenixville, PA, earned the clincher on a 7-6 (7), 7-5 sealer against Alicia Alvarez. 
 
The Dolphins fell to 4-3 on the season.  
 
Next, Siena will take a couple weeks off from competition before returning to the courts on Friday, March 14 at 6:45 p.m. against Sacred Heart (1-4) to open up conference play from the friendly confines of Tri-City Fitness in Latham.
