Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 MEMPHIS-Victories over Rhodes and Millsaps on Saturday capped a perfect 3-0 weekend for the Christian Brothers University Lady Bucs.

How It Happened: 
 
After sweeping doubles, the Lady Bucs capped their victory with wins from Meg Mattis (Cordova, Tenn./Evangelical Christian School) and Melody Mays (Riverside, Calif./Canyon Springs HS) at No.4 and No.6 singles.  The team fell just short of the 9-0 sweep when Tara McElroy (Dunboyne, Ireland/) fell in a third set tie breaker to Dasha Safarian.

1. Lauren Woog (Memphis, Tenn./Homeschooled)/Tara McElroy (Dunboyne, Ireland/) def. Dasha Safarian/Caroline Doherty 9-7

CBU 5, Millsaps 4

How It Happened:  
It took all nine matches to decide the matchup between the Lady Bucs and Lady Majors. The Lady Bucs claimed the match's first point with a victory at No.1 doubles by McElroy/Woog, but it was the Majors that exited doubles up 2-1 after winning the remaining two doubles matches.  Back-to-back wins at No. 1 and No.6 singles saw the Major's lead extended to 4-1, but the Lady Bucs fought back to even the score at 4-4 with wins at No.5, No.2, and No.3.  In the end, it was senior Meg Mattis who led the Lady Bucs to victory with her 6-3, 6-4 win over Jillian Sandoz, marking the second straight 5-4 victory she's capped this season.
