ORLANDO – The Regis (Mass.) women's tennis team closed its 2018 spring break trip with an 8-1 win over Penn State-Berks on Friday at the Lake Cane Tennis Center.

The Pride pair of Amy DiPace (Cambridge, Mass.) and Sara Kanarkiewicz (Peabody, Mass.) cruised to an 8-1 win at third doubles before Alyssa Miller and Violet Tran evened the match with an 8-6 win on the No. 2 court. Katasha Jarvis (Mount Vernon, N.Y.) and Ariana McCormack (Worcester, Mass.) responded at the one, beating the Berks tandem of Caroline Bashore and Laura Youwakim 8-3 to help Regis leave doubles play with the lead
