WATERVILLE, Maine – Regis College took the early lead and never looked back, defeating Thomas College, 9-0, Saturday afternoon in a non-conference women's collegiate tennis match held at the Alfond-Wales Tennis Courts on the campus of Colby College.

The number one doubles team of Ariana McCormack (Worcester, Mass.) and Carly Donovan (Harwich, Mass.) did not lose a game in winning their set, 8-0.

The other four singles matches ended up with the same straight-set score favoring Regis (6-1, 6-0), starting with Kaeleigh FitzPatrick (South Windsor, Conn.) at number five singles. She was followed by Donovan at number one singles, Colby at number six singles, and McCormack at number two singles.
