The Quakers are coming off a 6-1 victory over Drexel last Friday. Penn opened the match taking the doubles point as it would pick up wins on courts one and three.

She would even the score at one set a piece with a 6-3 victory in the second set and claim the point for Penn with a 10-8 victory in the final set.

The Hawks were set to open their season hosting Coppin State, but that match was postponed due to weather in the Philadelphia area last weekend.
