Paced by senior Gabrielle Clark's program-record setting 106^th career doubles victory, the top-ranked Emory University Women's Tennis team opened play at the 2014 NCAA Division III Championships on Saturday with a 5-0 win over Berry College in the second round of the tournament, at the Woodruff Physical Education Center in Atlanta, Georgia.

With the win, the Eagles will advance to the third round of the NCAA Championships to face Washington & Lee University (18-2), which reached the third round with a 5-0 victory over Sewanee earlier in the day on Saturday, after a first-round bye.

Emory won the first two doubles matches to be decided by 8-0 scores, with senior Brenna Kelly and freshman Katarina Su defeating Lauren Byrket and Abbie Smith at third doubles, followed by a second doubles win for sophomores Beatrice Rosen and Madison Gordon over Kaleigh Carpenter and Heidi Seabaugh.  Emory senior Gabrielle Clark and freshman Michelle Satterfield completed the sweep with an 8-1 win over Emma O'Reilly and Mary Cerny at first doubles.

The doubles victory for Clark was the 106^th of her career, marking the most doubles wins by an individual in the program's history.  She entered the match tied with former Eagle Zahra Dawson for the school record in the category.

Su claimed the first singles point of the match for Emory with a flawless 6-0, 6-0 win over Berry's Valerie DeWandel at sixth singles.  Satterfield completed the Emory win with a 6-0, 6-0 victory at second singles over Cerny.

Emory was up a set on the other four courts as well when play was stopped.  Clark led O'Reilly 6-1, 5-0 at first singles, Rosen was up 6-0, 3-0 over Byrket at third singles, Goodman led Carpenter 6-1, 5-0 at fourth singles and Gordon held a 6-2, 1-0 advantage over Seabaugh at fifth singles.

With the win, Emory matched the program record with its 24^th victory of the season (also achieved by the squad in 2003 and 2004), improving to 24-2 overall for the campaign.  Berry's campaign came to a close with an 18-3 ledger for the season.

Emory and Washington & Lee will face each other on Sunday, May 11^th at 1:00 PM at the Woodruff Physical Education Center.  The winner of Sunday's match will advance to the NCAA Quarterfinals on May 19^th in Claremont, California.
