In the only doubles match, a duo of Laura Murillo and Carly Ludmer defeated Steff Catanzano and Emily Conant, 8-6.

    Next up was the host Brown Bears. Sophomore Stephanie Gimenez fell to Emily Ellis, 8-4, in the first singles match. Laura Murillo was defeated by Kathrin Sorokko, 8-2. Lauren MacKay fell to Priyanka Misra, 8-2. A pair of freshmen, Maude Lecluyse and Dasa Stanimirovic, won in the only doubles match, 9-7.

    The Minutewomen rapped up the day against Army. In singles action, Kristen Beehler defeated Dasa Stanimirovic, 8-3. Maude Lecluyse fell, 8-5. Stephanie Gimenez produced the only singles win on the day as she defeated Bridie Burke, 8-6. UMass completed a doubles sweep as Kristin DiPiero and Laura Murillo teamed to win, 8-5.
