Duquesne University's Andrea Sailer (Tucson, Ariz./Salpointe Catholic) has been named the Atlantic 10's Women's Tennis Co-Performer of the Week after leading the Dukes to a 5-2 win over Pitt in its lone match last week. The win put Duquesne at 9-6 this spring and was the fourth-straight victory for the Red & Blue.

Sailer, a sophomore, took a 7-5, 6-4 fourth singles win and an 8-6 second doubles victory over the host Panther. The decisions put her singles record at 12-12 and her doubles mark at 12-8 on the season. It is her first weekly Atlantic 10 honor.

Duquesne will close out its regular season on Tuesday, Apr. 18, hosting West Virginia at 1:00 pm. The week concludes with the Atlantic 10 championship Apr. 21-23 at DU's home facility, Club 4 Life, in Monroeville, PA.
