ALTOONA, Pa. - Penn State Harrisburg's women's tennis team completed the fall portion of its 2024-25 schedule with a convincing 6-1 victory at Penn State Altoona on Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 9. 

The visiting Lions (3-2) needed just two wins in doubles action to claim the overall point and take an advantage into singles play. Penn State Harrisburg's top duo of Allison Wootton and Breanna DeSantis bested Penn State Altoona's Caitlin Blessel and Sienna Fell 6-3, while Anita Liu and Hailey Dey teamed up to defeat Altoona's Lexi Colaianni and Daniel Fulton 6-1 in the No. 2 matchup.

Solo play was a similar story for Penn State Harrisburg, with Wootton rolling to a 6-0, 6-0 sweep of Blessel in the No. 1 showdown, while DeSantis had to work a little harder for a 7-5, 6-4 win over Rachel Stricek in the second singles contest. Liu cruised past Abigail Morton 6-2, 6-0 in the No. 3 outing, Dey bested Fulton 6-2, 7-5 in the No. 4 pairing, and Ellen Muganyizi earned a 7-5, 6-2 victory over Colaianni in the No. 5 contest.
