Hollins Travels Across Town for Tennis Finale

Date: Saturday, April 18, 2026
Score: Hollins 0 | Roanoke 7
Records: Hollins 0-12 / 0-9 ODAC | Maroons 7-10 / 3-5 ODAC
Location: Salem, Va.

The Lead: In their final match of the 2026 tennis campaign, Hollins made the short trip across town to face Roanoke College. It was "Senior Day" for the Maroons but first the cross-town showdown would take place on the Elizabeth Campus Courts in Salem. Hollins would see themselves fall behind, 1-0, after the three doubles matches. In singles competition, the home standing Maroons would wrap up the match with wins at the top three spots before eventually winning the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) match, 7-0.

Highlights:
  • Zilina Robinson-Knox and partner Jade Thompson would be the last of the three doubles matches to finish at the #3 spot.
  • Rachel Hull fell at the top singles spot 6-0 and 6-1 despite playing deep into each game.
  • The final match of the afternoon would see Anna Starman push her opponent to the limit. After dropping the first set 6-3, the senior rallied from a 5-1 deficit to make it 5-4 and push the game to deuce. The potential winning shot was just barely off the mark with the final score settling at 6-3 and 6-4.
