NEW YORK, N.Y. – No. 48 Dartmouth women's tennis had a 5-2 victory over Columbia at the Dick Savitt Tennis Center on Saturday afternoon, playing its final road match of the regular season. The Big Green improved to 15-4 overall and 3-2 in Ivy League play, while the Lions dipped to 5-14 and 1-4 in conference action.

A 6-2 win at No. 2 doubles by Columbia and a 6-1 victory by senior Taylor Ng and junior Kristina Mathis at the No. 1 position left the deciding point on court three. The Lions won at No. 3 by a score of 6-4 to give them a 1-0 lead heading into singles.

Dartmouth soon took the lead with three straight singles victories. Freshman Racquel Lyn had a 6-2, 6-3 win over Cheng at No. 5 to tie the score, while senior Jacqueline Crawford defeated Andrea Kevakian, 7-6(5), 6-2 on court two and Mathis had a 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 win over Rima Asatrian at the No. 3 position to make it 3-1 in the Big Green's favor.

The Lions got one more point at No. 4, but three-set victories by freshman Allison McCann at No. 6 and Ng at the top spot gave Dartmouth the win.

Next Saturday and Sunday, the Big Green will host their final regular-season matches, taking on Penn and Princeton.
