For the seventh-straight year, Mary Washington and Salisbury will square off in the championship match of the CAC Women's Tennis Tournament after recording shutout victories in Monday's semifinal matches.

Top-seeded and regular-season champion Mary Washington topped fifth-seeded Frostburg State, 9-0, while second-seeded Salisbury defeated third-seeded St. Mary's by the same score on Monday.

The Eagles will host the Sea Gulls for the title Thursday.  The two teams have met for the crown every year since the CAC instituted the post-season tournament in 2006, with UMW winning each time. 

The Eagles are the eight-time defending CAC champions and have won the conference title 19 out of 21 years.  Salisbury captured the trophy twice (2002 and 2003).

At UMW, the 24th ranked University of Mary Washington women's tennis team swept Frostburg State University, 9-0, on Monday evening in the semifinals of the 2012 Capital Athletic Conference tournament. With the win, the Eagles improve to 14-7 on the season.

At Salisbury, the Gulls advanced to the CAC championship match with a 9-0 victory against St. Mary's.   Salisbury (11-9), the No. 2 seed in the tournament, ran through the doubles matches with 8-0 wins from the No. 1 team of junior Jillian Poppe and freshman Roxanne Alban, and from the No. 3 duo of junior Victoria Handlin and freshman Allison Lutz.  Junior Elaina Iosue and freshman Katie Youlios picked up an 8-2 win at No. 2 doubles for the 3-0 lead.  Salisbury's roll continued in the singles matches with Alban, at No.2, and Lutz, at No. 5, allowing their opponents just one game each; Alban won 6-1, 6-0 while Lutz prevailed 6-0, 6-1.  Sophomore Charlotte Urian collected a 6-1, 6-1 victory at No. 6 and Handlin came away with a 6-1, 6-2 win at No. 4. Alban, at No.1, and Youlios, at No. 3, each surrendered just four games to their opponents.
