The match was moved to Williamsburg from the original tournament site at the U.S. Military Academy’s Lichtenberg Tennis Center in the interest of accommodating W&M’s return trip to campus from New York on Monday.

By virtue of reaching the singles final, both players earn automatic berths into next weekend’s ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Championship. The most exclusive national championship of the college season, with just 32 singles participants, the event will by hosted by Ohio State University from November 3-6.

This marks the fourth straight season that the Tribe has captured an East Region title. Muth won the regional singles crown as a freshman in 2002 and teamed up with 2005 graduate Amy Wei (Marietta, GA) to take the doubles title in 2003. Last fall, Moulton-Levy and then-senior Candice Fuchs (Sarasota, FL) won the regional doubles title.
