BALTIMORE, Md. – For the second straight season, the Lehigh women's tennis team is out to a 2-0 start! The Mountain Hawks rolled into Baltimore this afternoon and blanked the Greyhounds of Loyola (Md.). Lehigh opened with a 6-1 win last weekend against Fairfield.
The Brown and White won all eight of the matches that were played on the afternoon. The lone match that did not take place was No. 6 singles, as Loyola didn't have a player for the match.

At the No. 1 spot, Paula Gonzalez defeated Kateri Martin, 6-4, 7-6, while sophomore Ella Imhof won against Abigail Thornton, 6-3, 6-1. Competing at the No. 3 spot, Junmoke James grooved to a strong finish by defeating Julia Thompson, 6-1, 6-2. Making her first appearance of the season, captain Casey Zhong defeated Taylor Kuncl, 6-2, 7-6.
