NEWMAC Women's Tennis Doubles Team of the Week

Ellen Van Faasen, Wheaton College, 2011 (Manchester, Mass.)
Rosalyn Chesky, Wheaton College, 2012 (South Hadley, Mass.)

The duo of Chesky and Van Faasen went 4-1 last week, including posting an 8-1 victory from third doubles over an MIT duo during Wheaton's 6-3 win, which clinched it a share of its first NEWMAC regular season title. The tandem then went 3-1 over the weekend at the NEWITT Tournament, downing a mixed duo from Amherst and Middlebury, 8-1, before picking up 8-3 wins over Endicott and Suffolk but falling in the quarterfinals of the B Draw to a team from two-time defending national champion Williams.
