THANK YOU SENIORS

The last time the Bobcats took on the Saints, Quinnipiac won 6-1 to finish its third straight undefeated regular season and became the outright MAAC Regular Season Champions.
SCOUTING THE SAINTS
Siena comes into the match undefeated with an impressive 14-0 record. Siena has rolled over MAAC competition, sweeping all conference foes, 7-0 in matchups.
LAST TIME OUT
The last time the Bobcats took the court, Quinnipiac women's tennis freshman Layla Rodriguez (Rancho Santa Margarita, California) won the clinching match in a Bobcats' 4-3 win over Fairleigh Dickinson on Wednesday, April 5. Sitilia Rencheli (Sarasota, Florida) and Rodriguez both earned two wins on the day.
KEEP THE STREAK ALIVE
After defeating Niagara on Saturday, Feb. 18, including MAAC Tournament matches, the Bobcats are now 30-0 in matches against MAAC opponents since joining the new league coming from the Northeast Conference.
MAAC MONSTERS
In the Bobcats' three MAAC dual matches, they have gone 26-1 in competition. The team has posted a 17-1 record in singles play against MAAC opponents and a 9-0 record in doubles competition.
DOMINANT DUOS
The Bobcats own a 64-26 (.711) record in doubles play this season. The duo of Rachel Horton (Stamford, Connecticut) and Sydney Young (Austin, Texas) leads the team in wins with 20. However, the team of Rodriguez and Rencheli sit in second with 12 wins.
CHEMISTRY IS EVERYTHING
Of the 16 different doubles combinations that head coach Paula Miller has used this season, 13 of those duos have winning records.
ALL THEY DO IS WIN
