Later, both pairs won their matches against Dartmouth: Ben-Abraham and Hu defeated Sam Grosjean and Alexandra Orlins 6-4, and Saroli and Lee beat Brooke Hess and Elise Wong 6-2.

Brown won three out of four singles matches against Rutgers. Ben-Abraham beat Karina Jumazhanova 6-1, 6-0. Lee defeated Naomi Karki 6-1, 6-2. Hu topped Stella Schmitz 6-3, 6-1. Saroli lost to Savannah Cohen 6-4, 6-3.

"Very focused matchplay across the board from our players," Broadbent Family Head Coach Lucie Schmidhauser said. "In singles, we stayed committed to building points with patience and attacking at the right times. We also performed much better in doubles today with better clarity and execution. We finish the fall season tomorrow playing singles matches against Dartmouth players."
