The 10th-ranked and seventh-seeded Duke women’s tennis team registered a remarkable come-from-behind, 4-3, victory over fifth-ranked and fourth-seeded UCLA (8-1) on Monday at the Boar’s Head Sports Club in Charlottesville, Va.
“We just competed and tried to scrap and find a way to get back into all of these matches,” said Duke head coach Jamie Ashworth. “An hour and a half into that match, it didn’t look great for us at all. After the doubles, we told the girls that you just trust yourself and believe in yourself. No matter what it takes, how long we have to stay out there, let’s try and do it. We were able to do it. Somehow we found a way to battle back in every second set and make it competitive. It easily could have been 4-0.”
The Blue Devils (8-0) claimed their second ITA Indoors title and the first since the 2003 campaign.
