BEVERLY, MA - After losing two of three in doubles competition, the Endicott women's tennis team rallied to win five of the six singles matches to defeat Colby-Sawyer College, 6-3, on Friday afternoon in Beverly, Massachusetts.

Endicott's Nicole Breting (Woonsocket, RI/Mount St. Charles) and Lori Wardner (Wrentham, MA/King Philip Regional) got the Gulls started with a 7-5 win in the No. 1 doubles spot. That victory, however, would be the Gulls only point at the conclusion of the doubles competition.

Lori Wardner also notched a nice win for the Blue and Green, defeating Jen LaChance (Killingworth, CT/Haddam-Killingworth) in a marathon battle, 6-4, 6-7, 7-5.

Also notching wins for the Gulls were Jenna Carme (Greenfield, MA/Greenfield), Alyson Boehm (Lowell, MA/Lowell) and Geneive Sherman (York, ME/York).

The victory propels the Gulls into The Commonwealth Coast Conference Finals where they will take on the No. 1 seeded Roger Williams University Hawks. Game time is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. on Sunday afternoon in Bristol, R.I. RWU defeated Endicott, 6-3, on September 15th in their only meeting of the season.
