A Look At The Field
The Brewers will take on three teams Saturday afternoon, battling No. 24 Wellesley College, No. 28 Mount Holyoke College and No. 36 Smith College. The host Blue enter the match having lost six consecutive matches, though all six teams were ranked in the top 21 of the College Squash Association rankings. Sarah Zhang plays No. 1 for Wellesley and is 9-8 on the season, while Phyllis Lin has a team-best 12 wins.
 
Mount Holyoke is 4-13 on the season, posting wins against Boston College, Tufts University, and Smith twice. Sanjna Merchant leads the Lyons with five wins on the season, tying with Catherine Ryan, while Brandy Williamson plays No. 1 and is 3-13 on the year. Smith College has dropped all 13 of its matches this season, but Jacqueline Zhou has five of the team's six wins on the year.
 
It's Nice Out
Freshman Hannah Nice (Hanover, NH/Hanover) has led the Brewers from the No. 1 spot, as she has gone 8-1 at No. 1 and 9-3 overall on the season. Nice has won her last five and nine of her last 10.
 
Coming Up Sevens
The Brewers have four players on the squad with seven wins, which ties for second on the team in victories. Senior Ellie Opdahl (Tokyo, Japan/Cate School) has dropped just four matches on the season.
 
Solid Newcomers
The Vassar College freshmen on the team have combined for 19 victories this year, including seven from newcomer Cherylann Mucciolo (Shohola, PA/Blair Academy).
 
Missing You
Senior captain Karina Primelles (Mexico City, Mexico/American School) will miss this semester, which hurts the depth of the Brewers as she played No. 2 all season and went 3-3.
 
Scher Sensation
Sophomore Carly Scher (Penn Valley, PA/Herriton) moved up to No. 3 recently, and has gone 2-1 at that spot for the Brewers.
 
Up Next
The Brewers head to the College Squash Association Championships next weekend in Boston, MA in the final team tournament of the season for the Brewers.
