RUNDOWN ON THE RAMS
Following a 0-5 road trip, Suffolk returned to the win column Sept. 22 with a 6-3 triumph over Wentworth to improve to 2-6 on the season. 

The Rams' top duo of Aidiana Sagyndykova and Valentina Medina continue their strong seasons as both are undefeated in dual match singles play. Medina is 8-0, while Sagyndykova is 7-0 with the duo splitting time as Suffolk's No. 1 and No. 2. The pair competed individually at the ITA New England Regionals this past weekend, but both Rams were not able to capture a victory. Medina suffered her first setback of her collegiate career. 

On the doubles courts, Medina has teamed up with three different partners, but has been the most dominate with her co-captain senior Sagyndykova. The twosome earned a victory at the ITA Regionals, but was defeated in the second round to hold a 4-1 ledger this season.  

PROWL ON THE PRIDE
Springfield garnered its fourth straight victory Monday night with a 9-0 sweep of the Rams' fellow GNAC member the University of St. Joseph (Conn.). The Pride is now 4-3 on the season. 

Rachel London has played the majority of singles action as Springfield's ace and has been a dominant fixture as the Pride's top tandem with Melissa Parrish.

WHAT'S NEXT?
The Rams are back in conference action Saturday, Oct. 1 versus Albertus Magnus at 4 p.m.
