Women's Tennis Opens Fall Slate with Strong Performance against Dartmouth
September 25, 2021 | Women's Tennis
BOSTON – The defending Patriot League champion Boston University women's tennis team opened the fall schedule with a strong performance against Dartmouth, winning nine of 12 matches on Saturday afternoon at Daly Field.
In total, the Terriers won all four doubles matches and five of the eight singles contests. Sophomore Victoria Carlsten, freshman Michelle Kleynerman, junior Steph Nguyen, junior Sofia Kostirko and freshman Sydney Sharma were all victorious in both singles and doubles action to lead the way.
Three of BU's singles wins came against former five-star recruits with Carlsten, Keynerman and Nguyen cruising to straight-set victories. Both Carlsten and Sharma dropped the fewest games total at four apiece.
The Terriers will next visit Harvard on Sunday (Sept. 26) at 4 p.m. Same as today's contest, there will be no team scoring.
