PATTERSON HEIGHTS, Pa.--The Westminster College women's tennis program cruised to a 5-2 Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) victory over Geneva College at Brady's Run Park Tuesday night.

Westminster's top doubles tandem of senior Gia Francisco (Canfield, Ohio, Canfield) and junior Christine Rossi (Jefferson Hills, Pa., Thomas Jefferson) was dealt a 7-6 (2) loss.

Valone, Sukal and Overlingas were all double winners Tuesday. Valone won 6-3, 6-4 at No. 3 singles and Sukal won 6-2, 6-1 at No. 4 singles. Overlingas posted a 6-0, 6-0 win at No. 5 singles while junior Grace Askey (Dubois, Pa., Jeff Tech) rallied from a second set loss to win in three--6-2, 6-7 (5), 13-11--at No. 6 singles.
