CORTLAND, N.Y. - The Cortland women's tennis team opened up a 2-1 lead after doubles play and won three of four singles matches, including the top three flights, as the Red Dragons closed their fall regular-season schedule with a 6-3 win over visiting Oswego.

Cortland finishes the fall dual schedule with a 6-5 record. Its match at Hamilton on Monday, Oct. 9, has been canceled. The Red Dragons return to action in the opening round of the SUNYAC Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 14, at 11:30 a.m. versus either Fredonia or Geneseo at the Binghamton Tennis Club.

Isabella Arrigo (Sauquoit/Sauquoit Valley) and Tina Wertman (Rochester/Caledonia-Mumford) posted a 9-7 victory at second doubles. They led 7-4 before Oswego rallied to tie at 7-7, but they recovered to win the next game and then break the Lakers' serve to win the match.
