Women’s Tennis Opens Fall Season with Doubleheader Sweep

PHILADELPHIA – Coming off the best season in Temple history, the women's tennis team came up with two 7-0 wins over La Salle and Rider on Saturday.

"The girls came out really strong and it was a great way to start the season," said head coach Steve Mauro. "I'm really proud of the way they've been working at practice and everyone played strong in singles and doubles."

In the first match of the day against La Salle, the Owls were quick to clinch the doubles point. Minami Okajima and Anais Nussaume took down Madison Gillen and Cecile Johnson, 8-0 at the third flight.
