WOMEN'S TENNIS BATTLES BUT FALLS TO STONY BROOK

WEST LONG BRANCH, NJ – The Monmouth University women's tennis team battled, sending a pair of singles matches to a third set, before ultimately falling to Stony Brook 5-2 on Saturday night in Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) action. 
 
Stony Brook grabbed an early lead in the contest with wins at first and second doubles. Zoe Klapman and Hana McKinney gave Kristi Boro and Mathilde Seeves all they could handle before being edged, 7-5.
