Sweet Briar, VA—The Generals of Washington and Lee defeated Sweet Briar 9-0 in an ODAC tennis match today. SBC coach Kelly Morrison said, "It's always a challenge playing one of the top teams in the country, but we set individual goals and everyone met them."
At #3 doubles, Laura Denson '05 (Houston, TX/Episcopal HS) and Haley Graham '06 (Virginia Beach, VA/Ocean Lakes HS) lost 8-4, but Morrison said, "You could see the effects of the practice time we've put in. All the doubles showed great court movement."
In singles, senior Sue Knouse (Washington, DC/Fort Worth CDS) lost a tough match at #6 6-3, 7-5 to Allie Chafey. Knouse was up 5-3 in the second set, but Chafey battled back to take the set and the match.
