Division I Valpo too much for Thoroughbreds

TAMPA, Fla.—The Skidmore College women's tennis team dropped a 7-0 match to Division I Valparaiso University Monday at Hillsborough Community College.
 
The Thoroughbreds are 5-2 with both losses coming against Division I teams. Valpo is 8-1.
  • The number three doubles team of Beilynn Geiss and Konika Dhull had a tight 6-4 loss to Eleanor Chapman and Demi Jhaveri.
  • It was the first time the teams have faced each other.
  • Coach Curt Speerschneider: "Pretty competitive match vs. a very strong D1 team, despite what the score was.  Doubles was back and forth and they inched us out with one match still in the balance.  We could have come out more competitive in singles and got down quick after a rain delay. We needed to be more patient setting up points but put in a good fight. We're back at it tomorrow morning vs. the #1 ranked JUCO team in the country. These are very good matches to see what we have to do better and get us ready for the second half of season"
  • Skidmore will play on Tuesday against Hillsborough before traveling to Virginia to take on Mary Washington on Friday at 3 p.m.
