Junior Stephanie Lin at #2 singles has had a fast start to the 2014 campaign. She picked up a pair of singles wins and teamed with senior Kirsten Parker to sweep their doubles play over Seton and McNamara.

Bishop Ireton’s girls’ tennis got themselves into the win column and promptly turned it into a two-game streak with a 9-0 win over Elizabeth Seton and a 6-3 upending of Bishop McNamara to improve to 2-1 in WCAC play in the past week.

Coach Katie Sloper-Johnson’s squad had a dominating day against the visiting Roadrunners. Number 1 singles player, Kirsten Parker, snared an 8-1 win while number 2, junior Stephanie Lin continued her strong start to the year with an 8-0 victory.  Number 3, senior Haley Mckeen outlasted her opponent 8-6, while Molly Jeffers secured an 8-2 win at number 4 singles. Casey Jackson whitewashed her Roadrunner opposite, 8-0, while Laney Delaney was an 8-2 victor.

Parker and Lin swept the number 1 doubles by an 8-0 count, Jeffers and Mckeen dispatched their opponents, 8-1, as did the number 3 doubles team of Emily Owen and Delaney by an 8-1 margin.

The Mustangs of Bishop McNamara called on the redbirds and found only a little more luck than the Bladensburg girls did earlier.  Kirsten Parker was an 8-6 winner, Stephanie Lin triumphed by a count of 8-1.  With Jeffers out of the lineup, Haley Mckeen cruised to an  8-0 win at number 3, while Casey Jackson suffered an  8-4 setback at number 4 singles.  Emily Owen was an 8-0 winner, but Laney Delaney was edged 9-7 at number 6.

Kirsten Parker/Stephanie Lin teamed for an 8-1 win at one doubles, Kiersten Laclede/Margaret Hughes were stopped 8-0 at number 2, but Laney Delaney/Emily Owen bounced back for Ireton to grab an  8-1 victory.

Next up for Bishop Ireton is rival Bishop O’Connell, the third visitor to Wakefield during the Cardinals 4-match stretch of home events.  Start time is 4pm.
