Greater Niagara Newspapers
Senior Julianne Prokopich had the clinching victory as the Niagara women’s tennis team edged Siena, 4-3, on Saturday to advance to the finals of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference tourney in Flushing Meadows.
The Purple Eagles (13-10) will meet top-seeded Marist College today at 11 a.m. for the title.
“The team is excited, but all agree that the win is short-lived today and that they have the night to prepare for a job,” Niagara coach Paul Calkins said.
Shella Dargout ran her winning streak to 11 games with a 6-0, 6-1 victory over Arti Iyer during Friday’s win.

Western Michigan 9, Buffalo 4

The two teams play again today in Amherst.

Manhattan’s Ruben Perez reached base safely six times and had three hits. Nick Derba added a two-run homer for Manhattan.
Derba added another big fly in the second game, another two-run shot that proved to be the difference. Ryan Virtue took the loss for the Purple Eagles (12-17 overall, 2-9 MAAC) while Manhattan improved to 22-11 overall and 13-0 in conference play.

The UB men’s and women’s teams cruised to easy wins at the UB Open with the men’s team downing an eight-team field and the women defeating a seven-team field.
