Bernadette Gens and Caitlin Snyder won their No.1 doubles match, then followed up with wins at No. 1 and 2 singles as the Devils defeated Plattsburgh, 5-4 in the final day of SUNYAC pool play at Binghamton.

Lucy Prevet and Sierra Allen claimed Nos. 3 and 5 singles, respectively, for the other Fredonia State wins. "I am so happy I'm the coach of this team," noted Head Coach Jane Gens. "It's been a complete pleasure to watch them grow as players and individuals." 

Gens and Snyder defeated Sam Svanther and Nicole Svanther, 8-3, in doubles. Gens took her singles match 6-2 and 6-0, while Snyder won 7-5 and 6-2.

Prevet also used straight sets to win 6-3 and 6-1 at No. 3 singles. Allen needed three sets to claim her No. 5 singles victory, 3-6, 6-4, and 7-5.

Sophie Olson fell 4-6 and 1-6 at No. 4 singles, and Gabriella Farr fell 0-6 and 1-6 at No. 6.

Prevet and Olson dropped No. 2 doubles, 4-8, and Allen and Farr lost 7-8 (3-7) at No.3 doubles.

"I am leaving SUNYAC play very excited about the next level we can reach in doubles," Gens would also add. "We lost a few matches by only a few points and working on converting those close matches will help us a lot next year." 

The Devils finished the SUNYAC portion of the schedule. They wrap up the fall season at Penn State Behrend on Wednesday.
