Tournament Play Continues
STANFORD, Calif.- Taylor Davidson, Caroline Doyle and Carol Zhao are representing Stanford in the round of 16 at the USTA/ITA Northwest Regional Championships at Taube Family Tennis Stadium.
In addition to Stanford, the ITA's Northwest Region schools are comprised of the following: California, Cal Poly, Eastern Washington, Fresno State, Gonzaga, Oregon, Pacific, Portland, Portland State, Sacramento State, Saint Mary's, San Francisco, San Jose State, Santa Clara, Seattle, UC Davis, Washington and Washington State.
Kristie Ahn defeated Jenny Jullien of Saint Mary’s 6-4, 6-2 to capture the 2013 singles crown. It was the fourth consecutive year a Stanford player had claimed the tournament hardware, following Krista Hardebeck (2012), Nicole Gibbs (2011) and Ahn (2010).
Last year’s doubles final was an all-Stanford affair, with Davidson and Tsay edging Ahn and Zhao 8-6. It was the third doubles championship in as many years for Tsay, who teamed with Stacey Tan in 2011 and 2012.
