Women’s Tennis Edged by Lynchburg in Thriller

HILTON HEAD, S.C. – The Lebanon Valley women's tennis team battled back from an early deficit in a thriller with the University of Lynchburg on Monday afternoon at the Chaplin Park Tennis Center in Hilton Head, South Carolina. The Hornets came away with a 4-3 victory in a match that was decided in a third-set tiebreaker of the sixth and final singles match.
 
Lynchburg (4-1) won two of the three doubles matches to take an early lead in the match. The Dutchmen (3-2) won at number three doubles. The teams split the six singles matches, with UL winning at number one singles. LVC won on courts two, three, and five to take a momentary 3-2 lead before Lynchburg won at number four to even the score. The match came down to number six singles, where the Hornets won the first set. Laken Kelly won the second set to send the match into a tiebreaker, in which Lynchburg came out on top 10-8 for the victory.
