The Providence College Women's Tennis team returned to match play on Friday, Mar. 16, against Stony Brook. The Friars fell to the Seawolves 7-0 in a hard fought match which the Friars hosted at Brown University.

The Friars dropped the doubles point early, as Risa Takenaka and Aidan Epstein were defeated on court 1 by a score of 6-2. Meanwhile, Katie Marvin and Sera Satkowski fell 6-3 on court 2.
