The Saints swept the top-three spots in their lineup and senior Kat Leiva earned a win in the ninth spot, but it was not enough as the St. Lawrence University women's squash team fell 5-4 to Middlebury College in the final round of the consolation bracket on Sunday morning at the CSA Team Nationals hosted by Harvard University.

"The women finished off the season today with a narrow 5-4 loss to Middlebury with opportunities to take it and deserve praise for all their hard work," said head coach Scott Denne "It came down to the final match with a 12-10 loss in one of the best matches of the season. We all look forward to next season and had our best season to date winning the Liberty League and being in the top-20 nationally ranked teams."

In the top spot, Anannya Morey earned a 3-0 sweep over Middlebury's Gwen Davis winning 11-2, 11-4, 11-7.

At number two, Sanna Koivumäki battled Ideal Dowling in a five-set match. The senior won the first two sets 11-9 before dropping a pair to her opponent. Koivumäki would bounce back to take the fifth set 11-4. Fellow senior Makyla Kelley also faced a five-set match at number three against Caroline Arena. Like her teammate, Kelley won her first two sets 11-4, 11-6 before dropping the next two. The senior won the final set 12-10 to earn the win. 

Leiva earned the fourth win of the day in the number nine spot over Middlebury's Evan Weiss. The senior traded sets with her opponent 12-10, 4-11, 11-9 then cleaned up the match in the fourth set with an 11-4 win. 

With their team season wrapped up, the Saints will turn their attention to the CSA Individual Nationals Championships at the Specter US Squash Center in Philadelphia, Pa. The Championships will begin Friday, March 4, and continue through the weekend.
