Navy Extends Winning Streak to Six Matches; Philemon Claims Eighth-Straight Singles Win

ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Extending its winning streak to six-straight matches, the Navy women's tennis team rolled its way Sunday to 7-0 victories over both George Washington and Saint Joseph's at the Tose Family Tennis Center.
 
The Midshipmen (11-4) wrapped up its homestand with a perfect 6-0 record, with junior Anna Jordaan and sophomore Peyton Amspacher-Philemon leading Navy past the Revolutionaries (3-5) while sophomore Molly Bellia along with freshmen Jina Cha and Anna Wiskowski all tallied 2-0 outings against the Hawks (1-7).
 
George Washington Recap
After Amspacher-Philemon and Jordaan opened the day with a 6-2 win over the No. 2 Revs pairing of Victoria Sasinka and Solange Skeene, GW evened doubles play with the top duo of Madison Lee and Karen Verduzco knocking off junior Olivia Fermo and freshman Nicole Fu, 6-4. Coming down to the third court, junior Julia Lee and rookie Jina Cha overcame a late rally from Devika Manu and Alexandra Lindqvist to take a 6-4 win and clinch the doubles point.
 
Kicking off singles play, sophomore Grace Li racked up a 6-0, 6-1 win over Lindqvist on the fourth court and Jordaan scored a 6-1, 6-3 victory against Manu in the No. 5 spot. Earning the match-clinching point, Fu carried out a 6-4, 6-2 win over Sasinka at the No. 3 slot.
 
Finishing out action, sophomore Emma Gu defeated Madison Lee in a 6-2, 6-3 final on the second court, Amspacher-Philemon beat out Katya Balin by a 6-4, 6-1 score at No. 6 and Fermo powered past Skeene, 6-0, 7-6 (9), in the top spot.
 
Saint Joseph's Recap
A quick start from Bellia and Wiskowski with a 6-0 win over Elena Fleming and June Tronhus at the No. 2 position was followed by Cha and Gu beating Valeria Casusol and Gisele Tang, 6-2, on the third court to clinch the doubles point.
 
Li then began singles action at the No. 2 court by defeating Casusol, 6-0, 6-0, while Bellia followed with a 6-0, 6-4 victory against Victoria Tracey in the No. 3 spot and Cha secured Navy's second win of the day by knocking off Tronhus by a 6-1, 6-0 decision on the fourth court.
 
Wiskowski then registered a 6-2, 6-0 victory over Tang at the No. 6 spot, sophomore Ji Soo Oh completed a 6-3, 6-3 win against Amari O'Brien in the No. 5 position and Fermo closed out the afternoon by beating Czerny on the court, 6-4, 6-3.
 
Head Coach Keith Puryear Comments
"Great team wins today. To win both without the loss of one set is impressive. We had a few players who did triple duty - playing three matches - in Grace, Liv and Jina, with Jina winning all three of her matches. This weekend is a good way to transition to the outdoor tennis that is now looming. Our spring break matches will be a good precursor to the conference matches to come."
