Women's Tennis Sweeps Radford, 7-0

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – William & Mary women's tennis won its second straight at home, disposing of Radford, 7-0, on Saturday afternoon at the McCormack-Nagelsen Tennis Center.
 
W&M picked up the doubles point for the third-straight contest with unblemished 6-0 triumphs at the top two spots. Senior Mila Saric and freshman Hedda Gurholt won their third in a row at No. 1, while juniors Raffaela Alhach and Elisa Van Meeteren improved to 2-0 at No. 2.
 
In singles, the Tribe claimed five of the six spots in straight sets. Both Saric (No. 1) and Alhach (No. 4) turned in dominant performances, dropping just four and three games, respectively, in victories. Alhach won her ninth on the year and improved to 2-1 in dual-match play.
 
Saric ran her win streak to five and improved to 12-2 overall downing the reigning Big South Player of the Year Salma Loudili, 6-3, 6-1, at the top singles spot.   
 
Freshmen Emma Fernald (No. 6) and Ine Strange (No. 5) as well as Van Meeteren (No. 3) improved to 2-1 in dual-match play with straight-set singles wins.
 
Gruholt rounded out the Tribe sweep rallying for a three-set win over Malin Falk at No. 2 singles. The W&M rookie ran her win streak to seven with her 12th win overall while improving to 3-0 in dual-match competition.
