On Sept. 22, the Lady Cavs tennis team improved to 6-2 after beating Baptist Bible 9-0.

The Cavs kicked off the match by starting in doubles play. Juniors Terra McHenry and Tori Yeich started off on a positive note by gaining an 8-3 doubles win. Next, senior Samantha Trumbo and sophomore Elena Conway added another win to the board, 8-4. Last in the doubles category, junior Nicole Broccolino and freshman Maggie Javitt finished with an 8-0 sweep.

For Trumbo and Conway, the chemistry is strong due to the fact that they played together last year, as well. “We are super comfortable with each other. We have good communication, and we always talk to each other between points,” Conway said. Three days prior, the pair finished with yet another win, 8-2, against Rosemont. “I think that we are good partners because we communicate really well. We know how to pump each other up; she levels me out,” Trumbo said.

The Cavaliers topped their opponents in single play as well, with all six w0men winning their matches. Although junior Nicole Broccolino was satisfied with her win, she feels that there is always room for improvement. “I need to focus on consistency and creating my own pace. Sometimes, I am letting the other person dictate the point too much; I need to keep playing my own game.”

As a whole, it was a great day to be a Cavalier. “You can’t argue when you beat a team 9-0,” head coach Stephen Parker said. The win against Baptist Bible brought the team to 4-0 in the CSAC. “It was a good win today, because it was a CSAC match. I didn’t think it was going to be too tough, but we always prepare for matches normally and go from there,” Trumbo said.

The Lady Cavs are determined to keep the momentum going as they take on the rest of the teams in their conference, while having fun along the way. “Let’s play for today, and tomorrow we will play for tomorrow. We can’t get ahead of ourselves,” Parker said. The team is looking forward to continuing their winning streak in their next match against Immaculata University on Oct. 3 at 3:30 p.m.
