Smithville, RI - Odessa Stork's fifth flight singles win gave Hofstra the decisive point in a 4-3 victory over Bryant Sunday afternoon. The win completed a 2-1 weekend road trip for the Pride.
Hofstra moved to 5-4 on the season with the win while Bryant slipped to 3-4.

"It was a solid win today over the Northeast Conference runners-up from last season," said Hofstra Coach Jason Pasion. "I am happy with the way the team bounced back after a tough 4-3 loss to Rhode Island on Saturday. Overall it was a great weekend of tennis and we are looking forward to our Colonial Athletic Association match against Towson next weekend."

The Pride won the doubles point as the Pride rallied to win the final two flights. Stork and Ronia Dolabany picked up a 6-4 win over Caterina Luisa Rokke and Leanne Kendall at No. 3. Alejandra Ruffini and Katherine Kachkarov capped off doubles play with a 7-6 (6) win over Megan Tan and Aleksi Gottlieb at No. 2 to give Hofstra the 1-0 match lead.

Kachkarov gave Hofstra a 2-0 advantage with a 7-5, 6-2 win over Sarah Hickey at No. 2. That was the only straight set match of the night as the remaining five each went three sets. Ruffini came from a set down to win at No. 1, 1-6, 7-5, 6-1, over Ada Boru. After Bryant won at No. 6 to make the score 3-1, Stork came through with a 6-3, 6-7, 6-0 win over Gottlieb at the fifth flight to clinch the Pride's win. The Bulldogs won the final two singles flights to account for the final score.

Hofstra will return to action Saturday, when it hosts Towson at Sportime in Bethpage. First serve is set for 7 p.m.
