HAVERFORD, Pa. – Gettysburg's three-match Centennial Conference win streak was stopped in its tracks on Good Friday with an 8-1 setback at the hands of Haverford College. The Bullets dropped to 7-5 overall and 3-3 in the CC with the loss.

Haverford (6-4, 5-1 CC) secured the first point with a victory at third doubles, but Gettysburg forced a temporary tie as the duo of junior Meghan Kelly (Easton, Conn./Kent School) and freshman Candice Kashani (Yardley, Pa./Pennsbury) teamed up for the first time this season and earned an 8-4 win at the second doubles flight. The Fords took a 2-1 lead into singles play with an 8-5 win at No. 1 doubles.

The hosts captured the decision with straight-set victories at both the top two and bottom two singles flights. Kelly bounced back from an opening-set loss to win set number two 6-2 against Jaclyn Porter at No. 4, but she couldn't hold the momentum en route to a 6-4, 2-6, 6-3 loss. Junior Kelly Eurich (Elizabethtown, Pa./Elizabethtown) won her opening set at third singles 6-3 before dropping the next two 6-2 and 6-0.
