Chestnut Hill College (1-0, 1-0) welcomed Caldwell University (0-1, 0-1) to campus on Saturday, September 21, for their CACC season opener. The Griffins started with a 1-0 lead as the Cougars forfeited number three doubles.

Sophomore Gianna Vassalluzzo (Newtown, Pa.) and freshman Carlota Garcia Arguelles (Madrid, Spain) made it a clean sweep with their 6-2 win at number two doubles.
