In it's final tune-up before Wednesday's clash with Brandywine, Buchanan cruised to an 8-0 victory over Bridgman at home on Monday.
The victory upped the Bucks record to 8-0 this season.
Buchanan's experience, especialy at singles, was too much for the Bees to handle.
While the Bucks boast eight seniors on their roster, including all four singles players, Bridgman has only one.
Four of the Bees' eight doubles players are freshmen.
The sweep of Bridgman included four 6-0, 6-0 shut outs. The Bucks lost only five games the entire match.
Ashley Shepherd won 6-1, 6-0 Monday at No. 1 singles, followed by Jacyln Mummaw's 6-0, 6-0 victory at No. 2 singles.
At No. 3 singles, Chelsea Ghatoaura won 6-0, 6-2, and Olivia Bonardi won 6-0, 6-0 at No. 4 singles.
While Buchanan dominated singles, they were even stronger at doubles, dropping just two games in the four flights.
Tracy Brelowski and Lizzy Thornton won 6-0, 6-1 at No. 1 doubles. Hannah Flood and Nicole Moyer won 6-0, 6-0 at No. 2 doubles.
At No. 3 doubles, Terra Linville and Megan Vylonis won 6-0, 6-1. Leslie Niemier and Robyn Bahr's 6-0, 6-0 shut out at No. 4 doubles completed the victory for the Bucks.
Buchanan faces Brandywine at home Wednesday at 4 p.m. The Bobcats are also 8-0.
