Queens, N.Y. - After a little hiccup earlier in the season, the Queens College women's tennis team got back on the winning track on Friday, with an 8-1 dismantling of Roberts Wesleyan in an East Coast Conference match played at the tennis courts in Flushing.  The Knights improved to 4-1 with the win.

QC showed its dominance during the doubles competition as the team dropped just two games in the three doubles matches.  The combinations of Aylin Mehter and Jenna Plevako along with Andrea Samson and Weronika Kurka each won 8-0, while the team of Darby Brandon and Jennifer Fridman dominated with an 8-2 victory.

The momentum carried into singles play as well, as Queens won five of its six matches. Mehter triumphed in first singles, 6-0, 4-0, retired.  From there, Plevako won in straight sets, 6-2, 6-0, while Fridman took a set and went to 10-8 in the third before falling in her match.  From fourth singles, Samson won 6-1, 6-0.  Darby Brandon took care of her opponent, 6-1, 6-0, and Kim Xiong won her match, 5-7, 6-3, 11-9.

The Queens College women's tennis team returns to action on Saturday, September 28, when they host East Coast Conference newcomer, Daemen.  The first serve with the Wildcats is slated for 11:00 AM.
