Helping solidify the victory at No. 2 doubles was the NA duo of Tia Soussou and Eileen Hu, who defeated Karley McCune and Angelina Sweeny by a 6-2, 6-1, final.
Following the win, North Allegheny improves to 6-2 overall and 4-0 in section play. The Tigers will host Fox Chapel on Tuesday in a non-section contest.
