CMS Remains Undefeated in SCIAC
The Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Athenas ran their SCIAC league record to 7-0 with two wins over the weekend. They defeated the Poets of Cal Lutheran on Friday, 8-1, and the Panthers of Chapman on Saturday, 9-0.
Against Cal Lutheran, CMS raced out to a 3-0 lead with a sweep of the doubles competition. At number three, the team of Kelly Chen and Victoria Santoro [pictured] moved into the lineup. The pair looked right at home, winning comfortably by a score of 8-3.
Chen and Santoro kept up their strong play in singles play as well. At number five, Chen defeated her opponent in straight sets (6-2, 6-2). Santoro provided suspense at number six, trading the first two sets with her opponent before prevailing in the tiebreaker (6-4, 4-6, 10-7).
At numbers one and two respectively, Kristin Lim (6-2, 6-0) and Crystal Lim (6-2, 6-0) each recorded a 6-0 round en route to straight set victories.
On Saturday against Chapman, CMS swept the doubles competition. Both teams of Kristin Lim and Jessie Huang, and Crystal Lim and Sarah Kukino, won their second match of the weekend.
However, being swept in doubles did not faze Chapman heading into the singles competition. In four of the six matches, Athenas players needed a seventh point to claim the first set.
Moving into the number six position, Victoria Nichols played superb. The sophomore from Culver City split the first two sets before coming out on top in the tiebreaker (1-6, 6-2, 6-2).
The Athenas will be back in action Monday, April 23, when they host Redlands at the Biszantz Family Tennis Center.
