The No. 20 University of Redlands women's tennis team settled
for second place in the 2010 Southern California Intercollegiate
Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Tournament after losing to No. 7
Pomona-Pitzer Colleges in the championship match. The Bulldogs
suffered a 2-7 loss to the Sagehens in their final dual match of
the regular season.
Redlands gained only one of the doubles points with an 8-5
victory by the No. 2 duo of juniors Rachael Miller (Newport Beach,
CA) and Sara Yoshinaga (Honolulu, HI).
Down 1-2, the Bulldogs needed four of the six singles matches to
pull out the upset. Unfortunately, the Maroon and Gray mustered
only one victory as sophomore Nicole Gerentine (Austin,
TX) rallied for a come-from-behind, 0-6, 6-3, 6-2 win at
No. 6.
COMPLETE RESULTS
Redlands (12-9, 8-2 SCIAC) looks forward to competing in the
110th Annual Ojai Tennis Tournament on Thursday, April 22, through
Sunday, April 25. The Bulldogs must wait until the week of May 10
for the NCAA's announcement regarding any postseason opportunities.
