KING'S TENNIS  FALLS TO ALVERNIA 5-4 MINUS TWO STARTERS

READING -- The King's College women's tennis team entered its important Freedom Conference matchup hoping to overcome the loss of two starters who were unable to attend the meet due to personal reasons.

Unfortunately for the Lady Monarchs, the team came upo just short as King's dropped a 5-4 decision to the Crusaders Saturday in Reading.

With the loss, King's slipped to 8-4 overall and 3-3 in Freedom Conference play while Alvernia slipped to 6-8 and 3-4.

King's, which played without the services of starters Rachel Hoffnagel and Courtnay Wilson, took a 2-1 lead after doubles. But Alvernia would capture four of the six singles bouts to walk away with the victory. Lauren Breen and Jen Bader were King's lone winners in singles
