CLAREMONT, CA – The #10 Amherst College women's tennis team opened their Southern California spring-break trip with a tough 6-1 loss to the #4 Pomona-Pitzer Sagehens on Sunday morning at the Pauley Tennis Complex.

Up Next: With the loss, Amherst moves to 2-2 on the season (1-1 versus NESCAC teams) and will look to bounce back as they continue their West Coast swing.
