LANCASTER, Pa. -- #2 Penn needed an hour an 15 minutes to hand
#27 Franklin & Marshall a 9-0 setback in women's squash
at the Mayser Center Wednesday evening. The Quakers (6-0)
posted 3-0 sweeps down the ladder to knock off the Diplomats (1-6).
The Diplomats are the third of Penn's sweeps in their six
matches so far this season. F&M joins Brown and Middlebury in
that club. Only Cornell, Stanford and Yale have managed to take
matched from Penn this season.
Freshman Sheena Suckoo was the only Diplomat who managed
to register a point in each of her three games in the scoring
matches. Suckoo fell 9-1, 9-1, 9-5 to Allie Madeira in the fourth
position. Erin Jaffe scored in each game of the exhibition match.
She ultimately fell to Allie Friedman 9-4, 9-1, 9-1.
Ellie Foster and Davinia Buckley each fell 0-0-2 at the first
and second positions, respectively. Sydney Scott did the damage at
the top for the Quakers, while Britt Hebden went to work in the
second spot.
The Diplomats will look to right the ship this weekend at the
Yale Round Robin. F&M takes on St. Lawrence Friday evening, and
will face Wellesley, Bates and Amherst before the weekend is
through.
