Box Score

CLARKS SUMMIT, PA - Tuesday's contest against Baptist Bible College was an encouraging one for the Crimson Eagles, despite the eventual outcome.

Crimson Eagle freshman Katelynn Wilson teamed with Danielle Hirsch to secure an 8-5 victory in doubles play, while Wilson also managed PBU's only victory in singles action, downing Kate Boger in extended sets 6-1, 1-6, 8-1.
