KALAMAZOO, Michigan -- The Kenyon College women's tennis team followed a strong season-opening win with a dominant showing in their second dual, this time winning every set of a 9-0 win at Kalamazoo College (0-1).

The Owls, who improved to 2-0 in the young season, have now won 17 of 18 matches across doubles and singles play. All but one of the 17 victories have been in straight sets, and Kenyon did not concede a set against the Hornets.

Kenyon opened the dual with wins in all three doubles matches to take an early 3-0 team lead. The closest contest came in the No. 1 doubles match, but Kenyon's Eleni Lazaridou and  Eleni Dakos paired up for an 8-5 decision. The Owls produced more dominant scores down the doubles line. First-years Allaire Berl and Shadia Amado Aguad earned an 8-2 win in the No. 2 spot, while Natalie Connelly and Erika Pontillo did not drop a game in their 8-0 win at No. 3.

Amado Aguad was the first Owl to secure her singles match, winning 6-1, 6-0 against Meghan Killmaster in the No. 3 bout. Dakos clinched the dual for Kenyon shortly thereafter by beating the Hornets' Maddie Hurley 6-0, 6-2.

Berl and Lazaridou followed suit with sweeps of the Nos. 2 and 1 singles matches, respectively, with Berl winning 6-2, 6-2 and Lazaridou winning 6-3, 6-3. The Owls closed out the 9-0 sweep in the Nos. 5 and 6 matches. Catriona MacIntosh claimed a 6-4, 6-2 win in the No. 5 match, while Lalasa Nagireddy earned a 6-1, 6-0 victory in the No. 6 match.

Up next for Kenyon is their toughest test of the season, when the Owls head to Cleveland, Ohio, to take on Case Western Reserve University, the No. 12-ranked team in the International Tennis Association's NCAA DIII rankings, on Sunday, Feb. 26.
