Autumn Atkinson (Manasquan, N.J./George School) for a 2-0 mark in the No. 2 doubles position, giving the tandem their 32nd career victory. Slade has won her last six matches – three in singles play, and three in doubles action. Slade is the Gryphons' third Player of the Week honoree this season, following Atkinson (Oct. 5) and senior
Sarah Fiordaliso (Buffalo, N.Y./Sweet Home) on Sept. 8.
