Box Score
 
KUTZTOWN, Pa. – Taylor Capoferri (Lancaster, Pa./Lampeter-Strasburg) and Alicia Pursell (Hamburg, Pa./Hamburg Area) earned victories at No. 1 and No. 3 singles respectively, highlighting the Kutztown University women's tennis team's 7-2 setback to East Stroudsburg University Saturday afternoon at Keystone Courts.
 
Capoferri took care of Marina Zardet in straight sets 6-4, 6-2 at the top-flight position in the lineup in singles. It is the second win for Capoferri in the last three matches. Pursell, however, was taken to the tie-breaking set No. 3 singles, defeating Aubrianna Stetina 7-5, 3-6, 10-5.
