Women's Tennis Successful in ITA Regional Championships

FREDERICKSBURG, VA – Over the weekend, the Roanoke College women's tennis team played in the ITA Regional Championships at the University of Mary Washington.

Despite late days due to rain delays, the Maroons had a fantastic showing at the ITA Championships.  The freshman team of Emily Henderson and Reed Kegel advanced to the finals of the Blue 1 Doubles bracket, picking up a victory over Washington and Lee's team of Shutley and Vella.  However, time kept the finals from being played against Johns Hopkins University.

Kegel also advanced to the finals of her singles draw winning the semi-finals over Emily Greunberg, 8-6.  Jenny Antoszyk and Brielle Smith defeated Christine Evangelist and Kaitlyn Pellegrino, 8-1.  Lydia Dey defeated Sweet Briar's Gina Rutledge 6-2; 6-0 in the Blue 4 singles draw.  Emma Barker put up a victory over Penn State Harrisburg's Theodora Avramidis 6-2; 6-0 in the Blue 5 singles draw.  Kaity Diskerud also won in the Blue 6 draw, winning 6-4; 6-0 over Goucher's Sarah Callendar.
The Maroons are finished with fall play, and will resume their 2014 schedule in the spring.  Check back with maroons.roanoke.edu as the spring schedule becomes available.
