AMHERST -- In its return to action for the 2009-10 season, the 17th ranked Tufts University women's squash team was blanked 9-0 by both #13 Middlebury and #21 Colby College in round-robin play hosted by Amherst College on Saturday.

The Panthers won decisively against Tufts, taking eight of the nine matches in five games. Sophomore Mercedes Barba (New York, NY) won the second game at #3 to tie the score at 1-1, but lost very competitive fourth and fifth games to drop the match. Sophomore Alix Michael (Mercer Island, WA) scored 21 points during her loss in the #2 match.

Likewise, Colby took eight of nine in three games. Michael lost in five games at #2 after taking a 2-1 lead. First-year Jessica Rubine (Cranston, RI) was very close in each of her games, losing 11-9, 11-7, and 11-8 in the #5 match.

The Jumbos continue round-robin play at Amherst on Sunday.
