WASHINGTON, D.C. – James Madison women's tennis rolled to a 7-0 victory at Howard on Saturday afternoon to up the team's overall record to 2-2 in spring duals.
JMU clinched the opening point with a 2-0 showing in doubles action before rattling off six straight two-set victories over the Bison in singles for the sweep.

Nelson also clinched the singles point with a 6-4, 6-1 showing at the No. 1 position over Stacey Roheman while Bradshaw rounded out the sweep with straight 6-0 wins over Margie Funches at No. 6 singles.
Junior Timea Guibe and freshman Bella Heidenreich opened the scoring for JMU with a 6-3 win over Umarah Mughnee and Sajela Harlow at No. 2 doubles.
After Nelson and Bradshaw's doubles victory secured the first point, freshman Emma Petersen kept the momentum rolling for the Dukes into singles play by defeating Harlow 6-1, 6-0 at the No. 4 position. Sophomore Dylan Owens catapulted JMU into a 3-0 team lead with a 6-2, 6-0 win over Christina Joynes at No. 5 singles.
Junior Rebecca Harris has now won six straight completed singles bouts after taking down Hutchinson 6-3, 6-2 at the No. 3 position. Sophomore Kimmy Herrock won her fifth consecutive completed singles match in 6-2, 6-1 fashion over Jessica Josiah at the No. 2 position.

QUOTING HEAD COACH JAMES BRYCE
"Today was a great opportunity for us to gain some solid match experience early in the season. Howard came out strong in doubles, but we were able to pick up the point. After that, our team played excellent in singles. Looking forward, we will need to start off better in doubles."
