Box Score The Sweet Briar tennis season claimed their first victory of the season in pulse pounding fashion on Friday evening. The Vixens traveled to Ferrum College and walked away with a 5-4 win over the Panthers.
Sweet Briar jumped out to an early lead, taking two of three doubles matches. The teams of Emily Wandling/AJ Lukanuski and Anna Colvin/Sam Yew notched victories for SBC. Ferrum mounted a comeback during singles play, but wins by Wandling and Colvin made it a 4-4 match. That set the stage for heroics from AJ Lukanuski. Lukanuski provided the match point for Sweet Briar with her win at #2 over Ferrum's Alexandria White.
