Tennis DIVISION I Women’S Tennis DIVISION I WOMEN’S Highlights Blue Devils trump Golden Bears in women’s tennis: Duke charged past California to capture this year’s Division I women’s tennis team title. The Blue Devils defeated the Golden Bears, 4-0, on May 19 at Texas A&M to claim their first national championship in the sport. The Blue Devils closed the season on an 18-match winning streak and ended the year with 29 victories, the second most in the program’s history. Two seniors, Melissa Mang and Jessi Robinson, won their singles matches within minutes of each other to secure the championship for Duke. Robinson, a co-captain for the Blue Devils playing the No. 6 position, easily took the first set of her match against California’s Marion Ravelojaona, 6-2. Although she fell behind 4-1 in the second frame, Robinson battled back to clinch the set, 6-4, and claim the match in straight sets. Moments later, Mang planted a forehand winner to end her match with a 6-1, 6-3, victory over Stephany Chang to complete the Blue Devils’ championship match sweep. Reka Zsilinszka, named as the tournament’s most outstanding player, posted five wins in tournament play, including a straight sets win over Mari Andersson at No. 3 singles in the championship match. Zsilinszka and Ellah Nze helped Duke take an early lead with an 8-4 win over Bojana Bobusic and Chang at No. 3 doubles. The Blue Devils’ Mallory Cecil and Robinson fol- lowed with a decisive 8-5 victory against Marina Cossou and Claire Ilcinkas to take the doubles point. “I’m so proud of them,” said Duke head coach Jamie Ashworth. “I couldn’t ask for more out of these girls. We grinded out most of the year with six players, and you can’t ask for anything more than what they gave every single day at practice and matches. To come through like they did and beat a great Cal team, it’s just unbelievable.” In the individual portion of the championships, Duke’s Cecil defeated Laura Vallverdu of Miami (Florida) in straight sets on May 25 to earn the singles crown. Cecil became the second Blue Devil women’s tennis player in program history to earn the individual title. Cecil fought off multiple break points in the sixth game of an evenly played first set before finally breaking Vallverdu twice to take the first set, 7-5. In the second set, Cecil raced to a 5-1 lead then weathered a furious comeback attempt by Vallverdu, who closed to within a game at 5-4. The Duke freshman then regained her composure to close out the match, 6-4, and secure the title. Cecil finished the year with a 32-4 record. California’s Andersson and Jana Juricova captured the women’s doubles national title Monday after posting a 6-3, 6-4 win over Stanford’s Hilary Barte and Lindsay Burdette. The duo is the fifth in the program’s history to claim the doubles crown, and the first since 2003. Ranked seventh nationally, Andersson and Juricova completed the season with a 25-3 record together. Barte and Burdette, who were aiming to become the first Stanford duo to earn the doubles title since 2005, finished 27-8 overall.

  • Tennis DIVISION I WOMEN’S
    Tennis DIVISION I WOMEN’S Highlights Florida grinds out title victory in rematch after fi ghting back from 3-1 defi cit: Florida’s Lauren Embree knew better than to try and hit with Stanford’s Mallory Burdette, so she just kept playing a steady volley game. Embree survived a grueling third-set tiebreaker to beat Burdette 5-7, 6-3, 7-6(6) and clinch the 2011 NCAA Division I Women’s Tennis Championship title for Florida May 24 at Stanford. Florida turned the tables on Stanford, after the Cardinal edged the Gators by an identical 4-3 score in the 2010 championship match. “Mallory hits the ball so hard I knew I couldn’t hit with her,” Embree said. “I had to grind it out. I just wanted to fi ght as long as I could.” “I had my game plan and I executed it pretty well for the most part,” Burdette said. “I’m proud of the way I played. It just came down to two points and I came up short.” Hilary Barte gave Stanford (28-1) its fi rst point at No. 1 singles, beating Allie Will 6-2, 6-4. Nicole Gibbs gave the Cardinal the lead 2-1 with a 6-4, 7-5 win against Sofi e Oyen at No. 3 singles. Stacey Tan recovered from a fi rst-set loss to beat Joanna Mather 3-6, 6-2, 6-4 at No. 4 singles and give Stanford a 3-1 edge, but Alex Cercone returned the favor at No. 5 singles, beating Veronica Li 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 as Florida (31-1) closed to within 3-2.
