The two victories sealed the deal on the team’s 37th conference title and 188th conference win, leaving the team undefeated in the New Jersey Athletic Conference since its creation.
Sophomore Katrine Luddy won both doubles matches, one against Ramapo 8-0 and the other against WPU 8-1.
For the men’s team, the two-day invitational served many wins and even more experience against Stevens Institute of Technology, Wilkes University, New York University
