Molly Rohan defeated Jessie Schreiber going eight-up with seven holes remaining, as did Kellyn Hackett-Slimm over Kyle Smith. Ava Greene accounted for the last SU win, going three-up on Lindsay Addink with two holes to go.

Rohan shot a +10 for the day to lead the team, while Erin Hahn netted a +11 and Rados a +17. Hackett-Slimm fared a +24, while Greene carded a +42.

Thursday marked the first career win for new head coach Aaron Ettinger. They look to keep it going on Tuesday, April 2 at Juniata from the Huntingdon Country Club in Huntingdon, Pa.
