The 41st-ranked Virginia women’s tennis team pulled off a dramatic upset Saturday, knocking off No. 25 Texas Christian University in a 4-3 victory.
Virginia (2-0) swept the three doubles matches to earn the point, then received contributions from the middle of its roster at the No. 3, 4 and 5 slots to secure the victory in singles.
Freshman 3-slot Lindsey Hardenbergh had the most impressive win, topping TCU’s Anna Sydorska by a 6-1, 6-0 score. Senior 4-slot Amanda Rales also earned a two-set victory, taking down Katarina Tuohimaa 6-4, 7-5. Sophomore 5-slot Neela Vaez prevailed in her singles match.
No. 12 Nina Munch-Soegaard, No. 49 Macall Harkins and Idunn Hertzberg won singles matches for TCU.
Virginia will next face Tennessee Jan. 31 in the ITA National Indoors Qualifier.
