Occidental Prevails in Tight Match

LOS ANGELES, Calif. – The Caltech women's tennis team dropped a tight 5-4 SCIAC contest to Occidental on Saturday afternoon.

Occidental grabbed momentum by winning at No. 1 and No. 3 doubles to take two of the three matches during the double portions of the match.
