Providence, R.I. - On Saturday, April 16, Providence College hosted St. John's University in their fifth home match of the spring season. The Friars were defeated, 7-0.

In singles competition, Providence lost all six matches in straight sets. Senior Molly Gilbride (Topsham, Maine) was the only Friar to register any points, but still was defeated by her No. 2 opponent, 6-3, 6-0. Suffering 6-0, 6-0 losses were junior Sara Bitetti (Norwell, Mass.) at No. 1, sophomore Andrea Lee (Cumberland, R.I.) at No. 3, senior Lindsey Christensen (Northboro, Mass.) at No. 4, and freshmen Carly Hoffend (Pittsford, N.Y.) and Katherine Lyons (Barrington, R.I.) at No. 5 and 6, respectively.
