January 22, 2022 | Women's Tennis
Marice Aguiar and Laura Lopez continued their doubles success on Saturday
In the 2022 spring opener, the Eagles defeated New Jersey Institute of Technology 6-0 in a dominant wire to wire performance to begin the year.Â
"We are very excited to be competing again. We had a good start to the season today. Everyone contributed," said Eagles' head coach Nigel Bentley. "We have a lot of hard work ahead but hopefully today's matches will give us confidence as we prepare for Brown on Tuesday."
