ITA Men's Team Indoor 2013 Semifinalists All Return to Final Four This Year


Unlike Friday, when half of the opening matches at the ITA Men's Team Indoor went down to the last match, none of the quarterfinal matches did, although three of them were closely contested 4-2 victories, with No. 5 Ohio State, No. 2 UCLA and No. 3 Southern Cal advancing to the semifinals by that score.  Top seed and defending champion Virginia, who blew past No. 8 Cal 4-0 in an hour and 38 minutes, joins those three teams in the semifinals, the same four teams that reached final four last year.

Ohio State was tested by No. 13 Texas, and was no doubt happy to have the doubles point when Longhorns Soren Hess-Olsen and Lloyd Glasspool earned straight-set wins over Peter Kobelt and Chris Diaz at No. 1 and No. 2 to give Texas a 2-1 lead.  Hunter Callahan secured the Buckeyes' second point with a win at line 6, and Herkko Pollanen made it 3-2 Ohio State with a win over fellow freshman George Goldhoff. The final two matches were in third sets, and it was Kevin Metka who ended Texas' hopes, beating Nick Naumann 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 to put Ohio State into the semifinals for the fifth straight year.

Ohio State is the only team to beat Virginia in the Team Indoor Championships since 2008, but the Cavaliers appeared much sharper in today's match against Cal than they did against Notre Dame on Friday, so the Buckeyes will need more from the top of their lineup to challenge the five-time Indoor champions.

USC, who lost to Virginia in last year's final, also had the early lead, taking the doubles point and getting a quick win from Yannick Hanfmann at line 2. But No. 6 seed Baylor, even without injured No. 1 Julian Lenz, kept fighting, getting a point from Tony Lupieri at line 5 to make it 2-1. Roberto Quiroz gave the Trojans a 3-1 lead with a victory at line 3, but again the Bears closed the gap, with Michael Dornbusch, making his ITA debut, getting a win at line 4. Baylor's Patrick Pradella won a second set tiebreaker from Raymond Sarmiento at 1 to keep the Bears in it, and for several games, there was nothing to dampen Baylor spirits, but Michael Grant went up 5-3 at line 6 and closed it out, beating Vince Schneider 5-6, 6-2, 6-3.

UCLA dropped the doubles point to No. 7 Oklahoma, but top-ranked Clay Thompson erased that deficit quickly, taking a surprisingly lopsided 6-2, 6-0 decision from second-ranked Guillermo Alcorta at line 1. Two Bruin freshmen, Joe DiGiulio at 6 and Mackenzie McDonald at 3, gave UCLA a 3-1 lead with straight-set wins, but the fourth point was a long time coming. Sooner Axel Alvarez took the second set from Marcos Giron at line 2, and Dane Webb posted the second point for Oklahoma with a win over Gage Brymer at line 4, but Dennis Mkrtchian tallied a . 6-2, 5-6 (6), 6-3 win over Alex Ghilea to clinch the win and set up yet another meeting of the Pac-12 rivals.

The Virginia match with Ohio State is scheduled to begin at noon Central, with the USC - UCLA match to follow around 3.  For results from today quarterfinals see below, for the results of the consolation matches, see this page at the ITA website.

My ITA Women's Team Indoor Recap and All-Tournament Team Slideshow; Texas Tops Georgia in Only Opening Day Upset at Men's Team Indoor

My recap of Duke's title at the Women's Team Indoor was published today on the Tennis Recruiting Network, and the ITA announced the All-Tournament team today, with Duke's Hanna Mar named Most Outstanding Player. Below is a slideshow of the All-Tournament team.



The Men's Team Indoor got underway today in Houston, with fully half of the matches coming down to the last match on court. No. 13 Texas defeated No. 4 Georgia in the only upset of the day, and it ended when Ben Wagland was overruled on his own match point, which was the deciding point in the no-ad format they are using in the men's tournament this year. Because he was overruled three times previously, this was a game penalty, and because that game was the tiebreaker at 5-all, another format change for this tournament, he lost the match to George Goldhoff , giving Texas a 4-3 win. In addition to the match, Wagland apparently lost his composure too, having words with the umpire. He was suspended by coach Manny Diaz for the remainder of the tournament. I know all this, not because I was there, which I am not, but because it is in the recap on the Georgia website. I continue to be impressed by the commitment and professionalism (in the best sense of the word) of the sports information staff at Georgia, who reported what happened and provided a quote from Diaz on the suspension. Many a school's athletic department could learn from Georgia's handling of an incident like this.

An earlier 4-3 match saw No. 7 seed Oklahoma defeat No. 10 seed Illinois 4-3, with Sooner Guillermo Alcorta beating Jared Hiltzik 6-3, 5-6(2), 6-4 at line 1 to tie it at 3-3, and Dane Webb topping Brian Page 5-6(7), 6-4, 6-2 at line 4 to clinch it. The evening matches were both decided by 4-3 scores, with Baylor's Mate Zsiga clinching a win for the Bears at line 4 over host Texas A&M's Junior Ore.  The other Bears, from Cal, won when Gregory Bayane defeated Rishhab Agarwal of Mississippi State at line 5 to secure the 4-3 win.

Complete results can be found here.

(1) Virginia def. (16) Notre Dame, 4-2
(2) UCLA def. (15) Pepperdine, 4-0
(3) USC def (14) Tennessee, 4-1

Pepperdine Replaces Snowbound Duke in Men's Team Indoor; Discussion on USTA's New Junior Closed Regionals Rages On


The Duke men's tennis team was unable to travel to Houston to compete in the ITA Men's Team Indoor, which gets underway on Friday. Having just driven through Durham earlier today, where we stopped counting the abandoned cars on I-40 when we got to 50, it's no surprise to me that the Blue Devils were unable to get a flight out the state, which is pretty much blanketed in snow throughout its length and breadth. It is a shame however, with so much great competition coming in the next four days, that they will not be a part of it.

The tournament gets underway Friday at 9 a.m. Central with Florida(12) vs. Ohio State(5) and Illinois(10) vs. Oklahoma(7).  Draws and links to live scoring can be found at the ITA's tournament page.

A few days ago I retweeted a link to Parenting Aces, where Lisa Stone has posted information on the cutoffs for the Closed Regional tournaments this weekend. It's not a pretty picture, and I know Lisa is trying to get more information from Lew Brewer and Andrea Norman on the disparities.  Lisa's post has generated over 100 comments so far, so it's worth your time to read the post and comments for perspective on the change and its implications for the summer's upcoming gold ball events.

Klahn, Johnson Win Challenger Titles; Catching Up on Other Pro and Junior Results

While I was immersed in the ITA Women's Team Indoor Championships, three former NCAA champions put up some impressive results last weekend at two ATP Challengers.

2010 NCAA champion Bradley Klahn(Stanford) won his second consecutive $50,000 ATP Challenger title, returning to Australia from his victory in Maui last month (not a short hop flight) to play the Adelaide Challenger as the top seed.  The 23-year-old left-hander defeated No. 3 seed Tatsuma Ito of Japan 6-3, 7-6(9) in the final, and now has risen to an ATP career-high of 67.  He is now the third-ranked American, after No. 13 John Isner and No. 56 Sam Querrey.

Steve Johnson after winning USTA
Australian Open Wild Card
tournament last December
University of Virginia graduate Jarmere Jenkins, who won the 2013 NCAA doubles title with current Cavalier Mac Styslinger, captured the doubles title in Adelaide. Jenkins and partner Marcus Daniell of New Zealand, who were unseeded, beat No. 3 seeds Dane Propoggia of Australia and Rubin Statham of New Zealand 6-4, 6-4 in the final.  A PDF of the draws is here.

Steve Johnson, who won the NCAA singles title in 2011 and 2012 while at USC, won his first Challenger since last summer in Nottingham at the $100,000 tournament.  Unseeded, Johnson picked up a second round win over No. 6 seed Ryan Harrison, then took advantage of the early exit of all the other seeds, beating unseeded Malek Jaziri of Tunisia 6-4, 6-4 in the final. The only set Johnson lost was to UCLA senior (and fellow ITA Indoor champion) Clay Thompson, who received a wild card and pushed Johnson in the first round before falling 6-1, 5-7, 6-4. Johnson's ATP ranking rose to 129 with the win.

Top seeds Sam Groth and Chris Guccione of Australia won the doubles title, beating unseeded (and mostly retired) Mark Knowles of the Bahamas and Harrison 6-4, 6-2 in the final.

Germany's Tim Puetz, a former All-American at Auburn, reached the semifinals in Dallas. Complete draws can be found here.

This week the only Pro Circuit event for the men is a $10,000 Futures in Sunrise, Florida, with qualifying concluding today.

The women's Pro Circuit events are the $100,000 Challenger in Midland, Michigan and a $25,000 tournament in Rancho Santa Fe, California. Live streaming is available for the Midland tournament at usta.com. Teenagers Brooke Austin, Taylor Townsend and Tornado Alicia Black received wild cards into the main draw, as did defending champion Lauren Davis, who is the No. 2 seed, behind Poland's Urszula Radwanska, in her first tournament back after an extended injury layoff. Sachia Vickery, Vicky Duval and Allie Kiick are other young US players in the main draw.

At the ITF Grade 2 last week in Peru, 16-year-old Raquel Pedraza, seeded No. 9, made her first ITF final, but lost to unseeded Julieta Estable of Argentina 6-4, 7-6(2).  Mary Haffey of the US and Georgia Tech recruit Alexis Prokopuik of Canada, seeded fifth, won the doubles title, beating No. 7 seed Anna Brogan of Great Britain and Maghan Kelley of the US 6-2, 6-3 in the final.

Logan Smith of the US lost in the boys doubles final, playing with Felipe Cunha Silva of Portugal.  The third seeds lost to No. 5 seeds Marcelo Barrios Vera of Chile and Juan Jose Rosas of Peru 2-6, 6-3, 10-8.

Peru's Nicolas Alvarez won the boys singles title, with the top seed beating No. 4 seed Pedro Iamachkine, also of Peru, 6-3, 6-1.

This week there is an ITF Grade 1 in Morocco, with just one American entered, Miranda Ramirez.  At the ITF Grade 2 in Bolivia this week, Jakub Wojcik and Kalman Boyd, the No. 11 seed, are the US boys in the draw. There are ten US girls in the 48-player draw, including No. 2 seed Nicole Frenkel, Pedraza(4), Ellyse Hamlin(5) and Ally Miller-Krasilnikov(11).

Duke Comes Back From 3-0 Deficit to Claim ITA Women's Team Indoor Title



©Colette Lewis 2014--
Charlottesville, VA--

After dropping the doubles point and five first sets in singles to the UCLA Bruins, it appeared Duke's second ITA Team Indoor title would not be won Monday at the Boar's Head Sports Club.  But led by freshman Alyssa Smith's comeback and capped by senior Hanna Mar's clutch play in two tiebreakers, the seventh-seeded Blue Devils turned a 3-0 deficit into an improbable 4-3 victory.

"An hour and a half into the match, it didn't look good at all," said Duke head coach Jamie Ashworth. "Somehow we found a way. We found a way to battle back in every second set and make it competitive. It easily could have been 4-0,  but we competed and scrapped and believed."

UCLA freshman Jennifer Brady was serving for the match against Mar at No. 3, with UCLA up 3-1, just four points from the title.  Brady had taken the first set 6-3, and had broken Mar in a seven-deuce game to claim a 5-4 lead, but she won only one point in that game, with Mar staying positive and defending admirably while nerves began to be an issue for Brady.

While Brady was losing that match and championship game, Duke pulled even, with Trice Capra taking a match tiebreaker from Robin Anderson at line 1 for a 1-6, 6-3, 10-7 victory, and Ester Goldfeld succeeding in her second opportunity to serve for the match, beating Chanelle Van Nguyen 6-4, 7-5.

So all the attention went to court 3, just as it had last year, when North Carolina freshman Whitney Kay defeated UCLA senior Pam Montez 6-2, 4-6, 7-6(5) to clinch a 4-3 win for the Tar Heels.


Mar held to go up 6-5, and Brady served well in the next game to hold at love and send the match into a tiebreaker, which Mar had to win. Brady's serve, an important part of her big game, deserted her at this stage, and she failed to get a first serve in play in her five attempts. Brady began to miss wildly, while Mar continued to get as many balls back as she could, and leading 4-3 in the tiebreaker, Mar somehow snuck a forehand volley winner past Brady at the net. That was all that was necessary to rattle Brady, who hit a forehand approach way long and then double faulted to give Mar the tiebreaker seven points to three.

The two-minute set break didn't stall Mar's momentum, with the diminutive Illinois native taking the first three points of the match tiebreaker that would decide the championship.  Brady continued to struggle, making errors she had mostly avoided in the first two sets, while Mar scrambled and made first serves, seemingly oblivious to the pressure.  Even when she found herself down 7-2 in the match tiebreaker, Brady was unable to loosen up and swing freely, and when Mar hit a bold backhand volley winner and then a short slice that led to a Brady netted forehand, she had a 9-2 lead and seven championship points.  Brady won the next point, getting a rare first serve in and outlasting Mar in a long rally, but it was a short reprieve.  On the next point, Brady hit a forehand long, and the Duke celebration began.

"The tougher player won and the tougher team won," said UCLA head coach Stella Sampras Webster, whose team was seeded fourth in the tournament. "We didn't handle the pressure as well as we needed to today. But it's all about getting better, improving, and learning from it."

Mar was able to do what every tennis player hopes to in that moment, with their opponent serving for the match.

"I tried to keep it simple," Mar said. "One point at a time. Not one game, one point. It was just little steps, step by step."


After losing the doubles point in 34 minutes, with UCLA's Anderson and Brady beating Capra and Mar 6-2 at 1 and Catherine Harrison and Kyle McPhillips defeating Goldfeld and Smith 6-1 at 2, Duke needed someone to take not a little step, but a big one, and that came from Smith at 4.

Just as Kaitlin Ray completed her 6-1, 6-1 victory over Duke's Marianne Jodoin at line 6 to make it 2-0 UCLA, Smith earned a match tiebreaker with Kyle McPhillips at 4, winning the second set 6-1 after losing the first 6-3.

Smith led 7-5 at the second change of ends and maintained her lead, although she needed a bold and difficult overhead winner to go up 9-7. McPhillips saved the first match point with a forehand return winner, but Smith prevailed in a long rally on the next one, with McPhillips eventually netting a forehand to give Smith the 3-6, 6-1, 10-8 victory.

"I knew that every point was going to count," said Smith, from Laguna Niguel, California. "UCLA is a really deep team. But I trusted all the girls on my team. I knew everyone was fighting so I just had to keep doing the same. You start with one and you build from that, so I was really happy to get that first one under my belt."

Just a few minutes after Smith put Duke on the board, UCLA's Harrison completed her 6-3, 6-4 win over Rachel Kahan at line 5 to make it 3-1 UCLA. Duke needed to win all three matches still on the court, and they did with Goldfeld making it 3-2 and Capra tying it at 3.

Mar's match tiebreaker win was her third in three matches (she also split sets in her first match but didn't finish the tiebreaker), while Duke won 6 of its 8 match tiebreakers and all three played on Monday.

"We played really well when pressure was on us, which was good to see," said Ashworth, who coached Duke to the title in 2003. "Hanna's been doing that for us for four years. She's one of the most improved players in the country. When she came in her freshman year, she wasn't in our top six in the lineup, but she worked her butt off to be able to win matches like this for us."

After a 2012-13 season in which injuries and Capra's academic suspension kept Duke from fielding a full lineup during conference play and the NCAA tournament, Ashworth was not expecting a National Championship just nine months later.

"It's a tribute to the girls we have," said Ashworth. "I wouldn't wish what we went through on anybody, but it's such a learning experience for myself and for our team and it's made us better. It's made us tougher and it's made us not take anything for granted. And we've played like that all weekend."

Mar, who was one of the few Duke players to remain healthy and play all last season, acknowledged that the adversity had its benefits.

"It was tough," Mar said. "I think we learned a lot about what it means to be a team. And I'm really glad we can be here this year and be a really strong team together and achieve this. It feels amazing."
