CARLISLE, Pa. – The No. 9 Drexel women's squash team (9-5) earned an 8-1 victory over the No. 24 Dickinson Red Devils (9-7) on Monday night from Carlisle, Pa. The Dragons swept the top eight matches in the ladder and forfeited the No. 9 position match.

Freshman Fiona Power improved to a team-leading 11-3 on the season with her dominating 11-1, 11-1, 11-7 performance over Dickinson's Alanis Perez.
