Match time is 4 p.m. After a rough spring break trip, the Crimson Hawks have won two straight, including a 7-0 win over Seton Hill in the PSAC West opener. The Golden Eagles enter with two consecutive defeats, including a 7-0 loss to Seton Hill last week.

>> Newman and Mariana Valenzuela have been the most successful doubles pairing so far this spring with a 7-2 record at the No. 2 spot. They have a 3-match win streak.
