The Penmen held a 2-1 lead after doubles and took five of six singles matches. In doubles Ashley Loft (Leysin, Switzerland) and Nour Kaddour (Paris, France) were 8-2 winners at No. 1, while Lindsay Baum (North Salem, N.Y.) and Rachel Wagner (Framingham, Mass.) posted an 8-1 win at No. 3 doubles.
Kaddour prevailed 6-3, 6-1 at No. 1 singles, while Loft won in straight sets at No. 2. Kaitlyn Poje (East Stroudsburg, Pa.), Baum and Wagner swept the bottom of the lineup, with Poje a 6-0, 6-0 winner at No. 4.
Notes:
- SNHU has won nine straight matches.
- The win guarantees the Penmen will finish no lower than third in the Northeast-10 standings. One loss by Stonehill in its final two matches and SNHU will clinch at least the No. 2 seed and a first round bye in the NE-10 Championship.
- Loft remains unbeaten in singles action this season.
