The Emory University women's tennis team ended their home-weekend stint with an 8-1 win over the Colby Mules on Sunday afternoon following its senior day celebration.

Sophomore Iris Berman and junior Eliza McPherron won their third straight doubles match by an 8-6 margin making the Eagles perfect in doubles.

Baykan entered the match hungry for her third singles win of the weekend and did just that securing the fourth team point with a 6-3, 6-3 victory on court two. Antanavicius followed behind with a 6-3, 6-3 straight set victory on court three to clinch the match for Emory at five points.

Berman and Perez finished next on courts four and one with their 6-1, 6-2 and 6-3, 6-3 wins respectively. McPherron got the Eagles' eighth point of the match with a 6-4, 7-5 straight set win on court six.
