ANNAPOLIS, Md. \u2013 Finding itself in a midweek battle against one of the toughest mid-major squads in the nation, the Navy women’s tennis team (16-4) extended its winning streak to 11-straight matches with a hard-fought 4-3 victory over Delaware (12-4) on Wednesday afternoon at the Fluegel-Moore Tennis Stadium.
\n\u00a0
\nAfter dropping a tightly-contested doubles point to a Blue Hens team that was ranked as high as No. 62 nationally this spring, the Midshipmen rallied in singles play by securing four straight-set victories to clinch its first win over Delaware since the 2019-20 season. Wednesday also saw sophomore Peyton Amspacher-Philemon<\/a> push her own singles winning streak to 13 matches, tying her for the second-longest singles win streak in program history.
\n\u00a0
\nDelaware took an early 1-0 lead by securing the doubles point in a tiebreaking third flight. After Delaware’s Maryia Hrynashka and Paulina Jurkowska won the No. 1 spot over junior Olivia Fermo<\/a> and freshman Nicole Fu<\/a>, 6-1, the Mids’ second pairing of junior Anna Jordaan<\/a> and sophomore Peyton Amspacher-Philemon<\/a> answered with a 6-3 win against Amelia Gordan and Navya Vadlamudi. Coming down to No. 3 doubles, Delaware’s Lara Russiniello and Katie Dollens rallied from a 5-2 hole to beat sophomore Grace Li<\/a> and junior Julia Lee<\/a>, 7-6 (7-2).
\n\u00a0
\nHrynashka extended the Blue Hens’ lead to 2-0 with a 6-3, 6-1 win over sophomore Emma Gu<\/a> at the top singles spot, but the Navy lineup responded by rattling off four consecutive points to keep its undefeated run alive.
\n\u00a0
\nLi quickly put the Mids on the board with a 6-3, 6-1 win over Gorman on the third court, while fellow sophomore Molly Bellia<\/a> followed with a 6-4, 7-5 victory at No. 4 over Russiniello, and the rookie Fu dispatched Jurkowska, 6-2, 6-4, at the No. 2 position to give Navy its first lead of the day at 3-2. Amspacher-Philemon then delivered the clinching point for the Mids in the No. 5 flight, edging Vadlamudi by a 6-4, 7-6 (7-3) score to secure the team victory and continue her own personal run.
\n\u00a0
\nWith the team result already decided, Delaware’s Hanna Vinahradava claimed the final match of the day at No. 6 singles, defeating freshman Jina Cha<\/a> in a 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (7-3) final.

\nHead Coach Keith Puryear<\/a> Comments
\n“The ladies played a scrappy match today against a Delaware squad that is a tough and battle-tested group. Both teams fought like crazy, so it was good to see the ladies pull it out. We’ve got little time to reset as we need to prepare for the defending Patriot League champion Boston U. up in Boston this weekend.”
