(Manchester, N.H.)
Geocaris and Teague posted a 2-0 mark from the first position in
leading top-seeded Wheaton to its first conference championship in
program history. Against number-four Smith during Sunday's
semifinal round, the regionally-ranked duo blanked their
counterparts as the Lyons swept the Pioneers, 5-0. Geocaris and
Teague then provided Wheaton with a much-needed doubles point in
the title match versus five-time defending league tournament
champion Wellesley College. Trailing 5-4 against the second-seeded
Blue, the tandem rattled off wins in four straight games against a
nationally-ranked foe for an 8-5 triumph and eventual 5-4 team
victory.
