Princeton played doubles against Penn and singles against both Virginia and Columbia on the first day of the Princeton Tennis Classic Saturday. The weekend's format is a "hidden dual," with teams playing singles and doubles separately with no team scoring.

In doubles, playing against Penn, Kelly Stewart and Kristen Scott won by an 8-3 score against the Quakers' Ashley Lostritto and Michelle Mitchell.
