Stonehill has also won 10 straight dual-matches dating back to March 8th to set a new school mark in that category. Stonehill, ranked third in last week's NCAA East Regional poll and 10th in the ITA Northeast Rankings, will square off with eighth-ranked Assumption in a showdown for first place in the Northeast-10 standings Monday afternoon.
