The Colorado College women's tennis team dominated Division II Colorado Christian Saturday night and defeated the Cougars 8-1 in Lakewood, Colo. With the victory, the Tigers improved to 3-5 overall and 1-2 this spring.
 
CC opened the match by sweeping all three doubles matches. Sophomore Fiona Cerf and freshman Kendal McGinnis pulled out an 8-6 victory at the top spot over Paige Crews and Maddie Andersson, then junior Maddie Cahill-Sanidas and sophomore Natalia Dellavalle (No. 2) and freshmen Maddison Doerre and Simone Hall (No. 3) each won their match 8-3.
 
CC took four of its five singles victories in straight sets, with Cahill-Sanidas going the distance before topping Andersson, 6-1, 2-6, (10-3) at the No. 5 position. Cerf won a hard-fought 7-5, 6-4 decision at the No. 1 spot over Crews.
 
"Maddie and Natalia really set the tone for the match at No. 2 doubles," head coach Anthony Weber said. "They were smothering the court and transitioning between defense and offense seamlessly. Simone Hall did a great job in singles keeping her shots deep and served well."
 
The Tigers will host Metro State University on Sunday, Feb. 28 at Lifetime Fitness in Colorado Springs. The match is scheduled to begin at noon.
