ABINGTON, Pa. - Eastern Women's Tennis recorded its first win of the 2025-2026 season with a 6-1 win road victory over Penn State Abington on Saturday. The Eagles earned wins at No. 1 and 2, while also clinching victories at the top five singles spots. 

Despite Penn State Abington earning the win at No. 3 doubles by forfeit, the Eagles earned the point with wins in the top two spots. Mary Brusstar and Sarah Mower won 6-4 at No. 1 doubles over Soniyah Youngblood and Juliana De Souza, and Grace Schriever and Anaya Birch clinched the doubles point with a 6-4 triumph over Sevara Tursunboeva at No. 2 doubles.

The Eagles lost just 14 total games in the top five singles matches. Brusstar dropped just two games at No. 1 singles in a 6-1, 6-1 win. Mower lost just one in a 6-0, 6-1 win at No. 2 singles. Schriever won by the same score at No. 3 singles. Birch earned her first win of the fall with a 6-2, 6-2 victory at No. 4 singles, and first-year Lily Aldrich sealed her first collegiate win at No. 5 singles, 6-4, 6-2.

"Everyone played great today," Eastern Head Coach Harrison Bitzberger said. "We battled through some tight matches and stayed consistent when it mattered the most." 

Eastern will wrap up its fall schedule with a home match against Cairn on Oct. 25. First serve is set for 12:00 noon.
