Final Stats

ASTON, PA, -- Neumann College fell to visiting DeSales University 9-0 in women's tennis action on Thursday afternoon at Neumann College. It was the first match of the season for the Neumann women, while DeSales improved to 2-0.

"We knew that this would be a tough match," Stated Head Coach Christian Gosseaux. "However, I felt it would be a good way for us to start off the year. Our team needs to be competitive this season and DeSales is a very competitive team. Despite the loss the women played well.
