SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. -- The 44th-ranked Slippery Rock University women's tennis team recorded its eighth straight win and 16th in 19 matches this season with a 7-2 triumph Sunday over visiting Charleston (W. Va.) on the SRU outdoor courts.

Sunday's match had NCAA Division II Atlantic Regional ramifications. SRU is ranked third in the latest Intercollegiate Tennis Association regional poll, while Charleston (19-6) is ranked fourth.

The win was the sixth recorded by The Rock against teams currently ranked in the regional top 10. SRU also owns wins over No. 5 West Virginia Wesleyan, No. 6 Kutztown, No. 8 Mercyhurst, co-No. 10 Shaw (N.C.) and co-No. 10 Indiana (Pa.).

Sunday's match was the second of four straight The Rock will play against regionally-ranked teams.

SRU, which dumped Indiana 8-1 one day prior to beating Charleston, will take a day off Monday to prepare for a Tuesday match at California (Pa.), the No. 1 team in the region and No. 8 team in the nation.

The winner of that match will claim the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference-Western Division championship and a first-round bye in the conference tournament.

Two days after visiting California, The Rock will entertain West Virginia State, the No. 7 team in the regional poll, in a 1:30 p.m. match to conclude the regular-season schedule.

The Rock held a 2-1 lead at the conclusion of doubles matches Sunday and then won the first four and five of the six singles matches to put the wraps on the win.
