The Seton Hill Griffins traveled to Millersville University on Sunday, October 4, 2015. In the first PSAC competition of the fall season the team earned an impressive 7-0 win.
Â
The Griffins won five of the six single matches and two of three doubles matches against their PSAC opponent. The women's tennis team from Millersville University was one of the six teams to qualify for the 2014-2015 PSAC Team Championship. The Marauders were able to qualify in three of the last four years thus making the Griffins' win even more impressive.
Â
In spectacular fashion, Senior
Sara Ruiz and senior
Isidora Knezevic won both of their singles matches 6-0,6-0 and won their doubles match 8-0, not dropping a single game.
Â
Knezevic gained much perspective after a recent loss to Carnegie Mellon University that helped her in the match against Millersville noting, "That everything is possible to happen. I was losing one set and down 3-0 (against CMU) but I came back, so we need to keep trying until the last point because it's never late to come back. Also, it means that even when we are winning like yesterday, we need to be careful and play serious until the end and not let our opponent come back."
Â
The Seton Hill women's tennis team will finish their fall season on Friday, October 9, 2015 at 4 pm with their match against PSAC opponent Shippensburg University.
Â
For the last match of her fall season senior
Isidora Knezevic "is looking forward to another good match and hoping to bring home a win."
