MEDFORD -- The Tufts University women's tennis team completed its non-conference schedule for the 2009-10 season with another decisive 9-0 victory against Wellesley College on Friday afternoon at the Gantcher Center. Coach Kate Bayard's Jumbos have now won seven straight matches, including six by 9-0 scores.

Tufts (11-3) received an 8-0 win in second doubles from the first year pairing of Lindsay Katz (Owings Mills, MD) and Janice Lam (San Francisco, CA). They have now won seven straight together and have a 9-3 record this spring. The #1 duo of junior Julia Browne (Old Brookville, NY) and senior Meghan McCooey (Cumberland, RI) rolled along to their 18th victory of the 2009-10 season by an 8-3 score. Junior Edwina Stewart (London, ENG) and first year Lauren Hollender (Newton, MA) were 8-5 winners at #3 against Wellesley's Meghan Stubblebine and Alice Kate Cummings in the closest match of the afternoon.

The Jumbos dominated singles, not losing more than six games in any of the matches. Hollender won by 6-0, 6-0 scores for the third straight match at #6. Lam won her fifth consecutive match, 6-1 and 6-0 on the fifth singles court. Browne, the top ranked singles player in the Northeast, won 6-1, 6-1 in the #1 match. Katz lost just three games in third singles.

The Jumbos return tomorrow for a huge test against two-time defending national champions Williams College. The match, likely to be played indoors again at the Gantcher Center, begins at 1 pm. Wellesley (12-11) is off until April 24 when they play at The College of New Jersey.
