New York, NY – After taking a 3-0 lead following doubles play, sophomore Ericka Jaramillo (Jamaica, NY/Townsend Harris) and junior Anna Vagner (Staten Island, NY/Tottenville) put away their opponents to give the Hawks a 5-0 victory over the Lightning of Lehman College and advance to the program's 20th consecutive CUNYAC women's tennis championship match where the Hawks will meet Baruch College for the ninth time on Tuesday.

The Hawks started off the match with Vagner and junior Jessica Yi (Queens, NY/Newport) winning their third doubles match 8-1. Then senior Evgeniya Kim (Flushing, NY/Cardozo) along with her partner Jaramillo, took down the first doubles team 8-3, followed by junior Veronica Efimenko (Belarus/#181) and sophomore Stefanie Smith (Little Neck, NY/Cardozo) winning second doubles 8-4.

Jaramillo then won her fifth singles match 6-1, 6-0 to put the Hawks up 4-0. On the next court, Efimenko was serving 40-15 with a 5 game lead and up a set, but before she could record her final point for the victory, Lehman's Aurora Peters hit a ball out of bounds to give Vagner a 6-0, 6-1 win at second singles and thus ending the match.

The championship match, which was originally scheduled to take place on Saturday, has been pushed back to Tuesday with a 90% chance of rain in the forecast for Saturday. The match will be played at the USTA Tennis Center with a 4:00 p.m. start time.
