Bridgewater, Mass. – With hopes of making it to the Little East Conference Tournament championship match on the line, the Plymouth State women’s tennis team traveled to take on top-seeded Bridgewater State University this past Thursday (10/18).
Bridgewater got out to a lead early when they were able to sweep both doubles matches from the Panthers to take commanding 3-0 lead early in the match. The Bears were able to complete the sweep after they were able to get the best of PSU’s top double team of senior Sara Burke (Barrington, R.I.) and junior Molly Heartfield (Dorset, Vt.)
Plymouth State, which for the second year in a row has been bounced out of the tournament during the semifinals, ends with season with a record of 8-7. Bridgewater will move on to the finals when they will host either UMass Dartmouth or Salem State University.
