Dutchmen Women’s Tennis Downs Messiah to Advance to Conference Title Match

ANNVILLE, Pa. – The Lebanon Valley women's tennis team will play in their third consecutive Middle Atlantic Conference Commonwealth Championship match after defeating Messiah University 5-0 on Wednesday afternoon in the semifinals of the MAC Commonwealth Tournament at the Shankroff Tennis Center.
 
The top-seeded Dutchmen (15-3) earned their 16th consecutive win on their home courts after waiting out an hour weather delay. LVC swept doubles in 55 minutes to build a 3-0 lead. They received quick wins on court one and court five to clinch the match victory as the other four singles matches went unfinished with the victory decided.
