HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Skidmore defeated Vassar in five sets back on Oct. 24 at home. Two seasons ago, it was the Brewers who defeated the Thoroughbreds, 3-1, in Poughkeepsie in a first-round match. Vassar leads the head-to-head series 25-19 since 2002, but Skidmore has won each of the last two regular-season meetings.
 
NEXT
Tuesday's winner will advance to the conference semifinal on Friday, where it will take on top-seeded and host Ithaca. The championship match is slated for Saturday.
