- This is the first ITA Regional selection for Vasile and Bradley.
- The duo combined for a 6-1 victory in doubles play against Saint Peter's.
- Vasile picked up three victories to win the B Singles Consolation bracket at the Army West Point Invitational, defeating Michal Matson from Seton Hall, 8-2, in the championship.
- Bradley and Vasile won their doubles match at No. 2.
- Against Sacred Heart, Bradley won the first set at No. 1 singles but ended up falling 10-6 in a third-set tiebreaker to Brianne Lauria in the final match to complete, earning Sacred Heart its only point.
- Bradley obtained two victories in her first MAAC matchup of the year when the Bobcats defeated the Rider Broncs. 7-0.
- Payton Bradley (Downingtown, Pennsylvania) excelled in her first weekend with the Bobcats at the Stony Brook Invitational. Bradley advanced in the quarterfinals of the Doubles Tournament A while paired with Layla Rodriguez (Rancho Santa Margarita, California).
- During the Quinnipiac Invitational, Bradley scored three victories with one coming in singles competition and two in doubles competition while paired with Rodriguez again.
- Early in the 2017-18 season, Visale teamed with Jennifer Lu (Cypress, California) where they also made it to the finals of the Doubles A Tournament at the Quinnipiac Invitational before falling 7-5 in the championship match to Fordham's No. 1 doubles team.
