LEWISBURG, PA - A single victory in doubles competition was all the Saint Joseph's women's tennis team could muster as it dropped a 7-0 decision to Bucknell. The tandem of sophomore Maris Donelson and freshman Gina Digiacomo claimed the win at third doubles.

Diiacomo and Donelson picked up a hard-fought 8-6 victory, but juniors Nicole Morrison and Jess Swanderski lost 8-1 at number one doubles and senior Michele Savage and sophomore Alisa Van Meter were edged at second to give the Bison the doubles point.
