SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - Saint Francis returns to upstate New York on Thursday, as the women's tennis team takes its turn at the ITA Division III Northeast Regional Championships. 

Red Wolves sophomore Helena Lynn earned to top seed in both the singles and doubles event.  Her doubles partner this weekend is Sophia Cunningham. The pair have a 3-2 record this season having just picked up a doubles win in a victory on Allegheny College on Tuesday night.

In the Round of 64, Lynn will face Hailey Kornbluth from the University of Rochester. The sophomore led her times in singles wins last season, compiling 15-11 record.

In the doubles tournament, Lynn and Cunningham will be matched up against freshman Madelyn Alecia and Loden Bradstreet from Union College.
