UNC's Women's Team Indoor Winning Streak Continues, Virginia and Ohio State Oust Seeds Pepperdine and Georgia; Joint Reaches W75 Final in Burnie; Giron Defeats Top Seed Tiafoe at ATP Dallas Open, Joins Shelton and Paul in Semifinals
The University of North Carolina's winning streak at the ITA Women's Team Indoor Championships now stands at 17, with the four-time defending champions defeating the University of Southern California 4-1 on opening day of the event in Seattle Washington.
The Tar Heels had an unexpected singles lineup, when Reese Brantmeier tweaked her knee in doubles play, and although she finished that match, the sophomore All-American was pulled from the singles lineup, at No. 2, while Elizabeth Scotty, usually at No. 4, was also given the evening off in singles. The Trojans did get a point, but even without two of their top four singles players, UNC managed a straightforward victory.
Two seeded teams were ousted, with No. 5 seed Pepperdine falling to Virginia 5-2 and No. 7 seed Georgia, a finalist last year at the event, losing to Ohio State 4-3. No. 4 Michigan escaped a tough test from Cal to open the day, earning a 4-2 victory.
Below are the scores from the first six matches; the last two are unlikely to finish before midnight on the east coast, so I will update those results Saturday morning.

Seventeen-year-old Maya Joint has been putting up impressive results in Australia since she moved there last fall from her home in Michigan. After reaching the final round of the women's qualifying at the Australian Open as a wild card, losing in three sets to eventual semifinalist Dayana Yastremska, Joint has shown that level in the weeks since. Joint, who has signed with Texas for this fall, reached the quarterfinals of the ITF W75 last week in Burnie Australia, this week, as a wild card she has advanced to the final of another ITF W75 in Burnie, beating No. 5 seed Sijia Wei of China, ATP No. 222, 6-3, 6-4. Joint, who now has a live WTA ranking of 363, will play unseeded 19-year-old Aoi Ito of Japan in the final. Ito defeated 17-year-old Sara Saito of Japan 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 in the semifinals.
