Caltech Women's Tennis Takes Two From No. 4 Middlebury

PASADENA, Calif. – Caltech Women's Tennis hosted No. 4 Middlebury College Wednesday afternoon, taking on their second national top-10 opponent in as many days.

Unfazed by the caliber of the opposition, the Beavers fought valiantly and nearly claimed some match points in Doubles, with the Emily Zhang / Anna Szczuka duo on Court 3 winning five games and the Payal Patel / Hannah Ramsperger pairing on Court 1 narrowly falling 8-6.

Bouncing back for a #4 Singles win was junior Yoyo Benchetrit, calmly putting away her opponent by 6-3 and 6-4 set scores to claim her third singles win of the season.

And once again going the distance in the longest singles match of the day was sophomore Anna Szczuka on Court 5, first trading 6-3 set scores and then outlasting her rival in an extended tiebreak with a 13-11 score. Szczuka's victory was her third singles win in six days, all against nationally-ranked programs.

Head Coach Benay Weintraub and the Beavers will rest this weekend before a Monday morning tilt against Pacific University (Ore.).
