ROANOKE, Va. --- One week after traveling to Randolph-Macon College to complete their regular season, Hollins played host to the Yellow Jackets in the first round of the 2013 ODAC Women's Tennis Championships.  Hollins came in as the tournament's third seed with Randolph-Macon holding down the sixth spot. HU topped R-MC, 5-2, to advance to the ODAC semifinals.

Hollins wasted no time jumping on their visitors by taking #1 and #2 doubles en route to a 2-1 lead.  Hollins needed just three of the six singles matches to advance to next week's semifinal round.  Hollins fell at #6 singles, but won at #1, #2, and #3 to take the match 5-2.

Hollins will play the #2 seed, Roanoke College next weekend in the semifinals.  Hollins will play the Maroons by virtue of their win over Randolph College on Sunday afternoon.
