OSWEGO, N.Y. -- Fredonia State players won the final three singles matches Saturday to rally past Oswego for a 5-4 women's tennis victory.
Down 4-2 with the three matches remaining, the Blue Devils (3-6, 2-5 SUNYAC) began their comeback when junior Chelsea Mang (Lancaster/Depew) won at No. 6 singles.
The Blue Devils pulled even when freshman Katrina Johnston (Fredonia) was victorious in her No. 5 singles match, and securred the SUNYAC victory as Calee Prindle (Geneva) emerged as a winner at No. 3 singles in a third-set tiebreaker.
Fredonia State's doubles teams of Prindle and senior Megan Zarzycki (Rochester/Irondequoit), and Johnston and Mang, won their matches in the No. 2 and No. 3 slots, respectively.
The Blue Devils are back in action Wednesday at Case Western.
