The Maroon and Gray swept the doubles to jump out to a solid start.  The No. 2 tandem of sophomore Jackie Lacy (Palm Desert, CA) and junior Kate Dolan (St. Louis, MO) initiated the scoring with an 8-3 decision, while the top duo of junior Elizabeth Johnson (Portland, OR) and sophomore Sarah Ikioka (Wailuku, HI) kept things rolling with an 8-5 win.  First-years Karen Kobayashi (Sappora, Japan) and Lexi Lehman (Scottsdale, AZ) completed the sweep with their 9-7 showing at No. 3. 

With momentum on their side, the Bulldogs continued to dominate in the singles, as Dolan blanked her No. 6 opponent in straight sets.  Lacy officially clinched the victory by defeating her No. 4 counterpart, 6-3, 6-4. 

Furthermore, Ikioka, Kobayashi, Lehman, and Johnson all won in straight sets for the Bulldogs' 9-0 result.
