Strength in Lower Rungs of Lineup Carries Cards to 5-4 Victory over Colby in NESCAC Tourney Opener, But Cards Finish on Their Seed in Eighth Place

Defeating Colby for the third time this year and all by identical 5-4 counts, the Cardinals, seeded eighth, advanced to the NESCAC tournament quarter-finals for the second straight year after this first-round NESCAC triumph at Trinity Fri., Feb. 3. Wesleyan has the daunting task of facing top-seeded and host Trinity in its next match Sat., Feb. 4. Wesleyan will have a second match during the day, likely facing the loser of the Middlebury vs. Hamilton matchup. The tournament concludes Sun., Feb. 5 with matches to decided each spot in the top eight. Over its three matches vs. the Mules in 2011-12, Wesleyan has taken the #7, #8, and #9 matches each time, accounting for the majority of its points. Also winning each time out against the Mules has been Tanesha Jackson '13 (main photo) and Grace Zimmerman '13 (photo insert lower right).
