CHARLESTON, S.C. - The College of Charleston women's tennis team hits the road for two conference matches this weekend, and will take on Elon (14-7) on Saturday before heading north for a showdown with James Madison (14-5) on Sunday. Both matches are scheduled for 10 a.m.
Â
The Cougars will look to maintain their two-match winning streak, having defeated SC State and Newberry in dominant fashion over the past week.
Â
CofC will meet the Phoenix for the 20th time and the Dukes for the fifth time on record. The Cougars hold a 16-3 record against Elon, and a 3-1 record against JMU. The College hosted both teams last season at Patriots Point, succumbing in each matchup by 4-3 scores.
Â
The Phoenix is 14-7 on the season, but have split its previous four matches with wins over ECU and Barton and losses to Winthrop and Hawaii. They went 14-10 overall last year and picked up a No. 2 seed in the CAA Tournament, beating Drexel before falling to JMU. Maria Paraja leads the team in singles with a 14-6 record spread across the middle flights.
Â
James Madison sports a 14-5 record and rides a five-match winning streak into the weekend. They made it to last year's CAA Championship match with William & Mary, but succumbed 4-1. Jona Roka sports the best singles record on the team at 14-4, while Timea Guibe holds a 11-3 mark in top flight play.
Â
Live stats will be available for both matches.
