(ROCHESTER, N.Y.) – Carnegie Mellon University freshman Anna Chow was named University Athletic Association (UAA) Women's Tennis Athletes of the Week for her performance over the weekend against Division I Duquesne University and Allegheny College.

Chow went a combined 3-0 on Sunday in doubles and singles play, as the Tartans collected two wins, a 9-0 blanking of Allegheny and a 7-2 win Duquesne University. The first year teamed with Zoe Angell to post two wins at third doubles. The first was an 8-1 win over the tandem from Allegheny and the second an 8-5 win that claimed the first team point for the Tartans against Duquesne. Chow played sixth singles against Allegheny and recorded the Tartans first single point of the match with a 6-1, 6-1 victory.

The win over Duquesne snapped the Tartans 10-match skid to the Dukes with the last win over the Dukes was a 7-2 decision on April 18, 2014. It was just the fifth win over Duquesne in program history.

The Tartans will next travel to Altamonte Springs, Florida, for the UAA Championship with play set to begin on Thursday, April 20. Carnegie Mellon will enter the championship tournament as the three seed and will play sixth seed WashU to open play.
