CLAREMONT, CA – The Amherst College women's tennis team suffered a tough loss to the #3 Claremont-Mudd-Scripps (CMS) Athenas Wednesday at the Biszantz Family Tennis Center. The Mammoths were unable to thwart the Athenas' 3-match winning streak on CMS' home courts in Southern California.
Strong doubles performances by CMS swept the Mammoths 3-0 in the doubles matches. Amherst fought back in the singles, with Deliala Friedman and Jackie Buckzin winning their singles matches at the #1 and #4 spots, but the Athenas were too strong overall for the Purple and White.
Up Next:
With a record of 1-3, the Mammoths have a day off on Thursday to rest up and practice. Amherst will then take on #31 Redlands on Friday March 18th, at the Verdieck Tennis Courts in Redlands, CA, at 6PM ET. This match will conclude the team's Spring Break visit to California.
