Providence, R.I. - The 13th-ranked Brown women's squash team stepped up its game against 12th-ranked Williams, upsetting the Ephs by an 8-1 score at the Kate Brodsky Squash Pavilion Tuesday evening.

"The team are very happy with the overall performance against Williams, who were ranked one place above us going into the match," said head coach Stuart leGassick. "To come away with an 8-1 win was close to remarkable! The team are excited to welcome Dartmouth to the Pizzitola on Sunday at 2 PM. This win has given the team a lot of confidence."

Brown continued its success at number six with sophomore Isabella Kearns rallying from a 2-1 deficit to capture the match, 3-2. Junior Catherine Kimmel and sophomore Sara Syed each won, 3-0, at eight and nine, respectively.
