NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth’s women’s tennis team won their fifth consecutive match, defeating visiting Western Connecticut State, 8-1, in a Little East Conference match at the UMass Dartmouth Athletic Complex Saturday afternoon.
     The Corsairs won five of the six singles matches to clinch the victory before doubles began. For the second consecutive match, twelve different players saw action as the Corsairs continued to mark their best start since Ralph Perry took over as head coach in 1999.
     Freshmen Amy Lopes (Dartmouth, MA/Dartmouth HS) and Blair Dalrymple (North Attleboro, MA/North Attleboro HS), junior Becky Bullock (Wrentham, MA/King Phillip Regional HS), and seniors Kim Pham (Worcester, MA/Doherty Memorial HS and Nicole Cross (Dunstable, MA/Groton-Dunstable HS) each won their singles matches in straight sets.
     “Amy played well in a tough match against Lauren Post, and we were firing on all cylinders today,” said Perry. “We were able to substitute in doubles, and everyone played well, especially Amy and Becky (Bullock).”
     The Corsairs improved to 5-1 and 2-0 in Little East Conference play with their victory, while the Colonials fell to 0-2 and 0-2 with the defeat. UMass Dartmouth will return to action when they visit Simmons Wednesday, while WCSU will host Hunter Wednesday.
