LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. -- A conference match-up of the league's top two women's teams highlighted action on the court this past week.
For the first time in program history, the Southwestern women (13-4 overall, 6-0 SCAC) defeated Trinity, earning a 7-2 road victory over the Tigers on Saturday.
Trinity jumped out to a 2-1 lead after doubles as Megan Flores and Catherine Cushing defeated Esther Bowers and Nina Elez, 8-3, at No. 1 doubles, and the No. 2 team of Mary and Zoe Kaffen defeated Mariana Quetzeri and Taylor Despriet, 8-4.
The Pirates' Alli Ziehm and Emma Kesterson closed doubles with a big 8-5 victory over Nichole Markiewicz and Elodie Richard in No. 3 doubles to avoid the sweep.
Southwestern carried that momentum over to singles play, sweeping the Tigers with Ziehm clinching the match for the Pirates with a 6-2, 6-3 win over Paulina Garcia in No. 6 singles.
