New Providence, N.J. - All seven Pirates who competed Saturday night tasted victory as the Seton Hall tennis team topped Wagner in dual match action, 6-1, at Murray Hill Tennis & Fitness. Hiba El Khalifi and Emily O'Donovan came away with wins in both doubles and singles.

The Pirates quickly won the doubles point as El Khalifi and O'Donovan dominated at No. 3, 6-1 over Jasmine Lin and Emma Lofstedt, and Oliwia Kempinski and Anastasia Petrova defeated Paula Uy and Samantha Bentsianov at No. 2, 6-2.

In singles, the Pirates were dominant in the bottom half of the lineup as Hili Kronzon did not lose a game to Lofstedt at No. 6, 6-0, 6-0. O'Donovan was sharp at No. 5, topping Lin, 6-2, 6-1. Arabella Moen lost just two games to Uy at No. 4, 6-2, 6-0. El Khalifi bested Bentsianov, 6-3, 6-1.

With Seton Hall having clinched team victory, No. 1 and No. 2 singles were settled by tiebreaker after each went to a third set, and Arina Gumerova came out on top at No. 1 while Kempinski fell just short at No. 2.
