Columbia Gets Past Princeton in ECAC Final
February 10, 2019 | Women's Tennis
Grace Joyce and Clare McKee won on court two and Nathalie Rodilosso and Stephanie Schrage won on court three to deliver the doubles point to Princeton. But after a straight-set win on court three, Columbia won the next three singles matches to finish in three sets to take the title.
Princeton was aiming to become the first team to win back-to-back ECAC titles since Yale won four straight from 2009-12.
The Tigers will hit the court again Feb. 20, hosting Rutgers.
