Women's Tennis Drops Landmark Conference Decision to Catholic to End Conference Slate

BETHLEHEM, Pa. --- The Moravian College women's tennis squad jumped out to a lead in doubles action before dropping a 7-2 decision to The Catholic University of America in Landmark Conference action Sunday at Hoffman Courts as the Greyhounds closed their 2016 conference schedule.

Moravian had an early 1-0 lead after senior Courtnie Lambert and sophomore Caitlin Adams posted an 8-1 win at third doubles. Catholic briefly tied the match with a victory at second doubles but the Greyhounds' duo of junior Brittney Eady and sophomore Skylar Oliwa earned an 8-4 triumph at first doubles to the Greyhounds back in front, 2-1.

However, Catholic swept all six singles matches in straight sets to clinch the contest.

Moravian, now 7-8 this season and 3-4 in Landmark Conference action, will close out its 2015-16 season on Friday, April 29 in a non-conference match at Wilkes University beginning at 3:30 p.m.
