Princeton Completes Week Sweep of Big Ten Opponents, Tops Indiana
February 23, 2019 | Women's Tennis
Three days after the 49th-ranked Princeton women's tennis team defeated one Big Ten opponent in Jadwin Gym in Rutgers, the Tigers headed out to Indiana and picked up another win from a Big Ten team, defeating the Hoosiers 5-2.
Princeton picked up the doubles point when Grace Joyce and Clare McKee won on court one after Nathalie Rodilosso and Stephanie Schrage won on court two and Indiana took the match on court three.
Rodilosso and Joyce then won singles matches on courts six and four to put Princeton up 3-0, but the clinching win had to wait as Indiana won on courts one and five to pull within 3-2. Brianna Shvets then won a three-setter on court two to clinch it before McKee took a tiebreak third set for the team's fifth point.
The Tigers, now 7-3, will take on another Big Ten opponent among its two matches next weekend in Maryland, heading to Navy Friday and Maryland next Saturday.
