ITA Division I Regional Results; National Fall Championship Fields Set; All Tyler $80K Qualifiers Current or Former Collegians; McNally Continues to Lead Women's Australian Open Wild Card Challenge

There is one match yet to be played in the ITA Division I Regional Championships, with University of Michigan teammates set to face off in the Midwest final Thursday in Ann Arbor, but with both the champion and the finalist earning entry into the ITA National Fall Championships, the result of that match is more for bragging rights in the Wolverine family.

Below are all the results from the 12 men's and 12 women's regionals in singles and doubles, with five women's regionals and seven men's regionals decided over the past six days. I've put the most recent results at the top, leaving in their dates to distinguish them from earlier regionals.

The ITA Cup wild card and the two ITA wild cards have yet to be announced. See John Parsons No-Ad No Problem blog for an easy to read table of the singles fields by region.

Two freshman, Stanford's Nishesh Basavareddy and Columbia's Michael Zheng, have earned their spots in the 32-player singles draws at the National Fall Championships next month.

Qualifying concluded today at the $80,000 USTA women's Pro Circuit tournament in Tyler Texas, with all eight qualifiers either current or former collegians.

Those currently on rosters are Alexis Blokhina, the Stanford freshman, Alexandra Vecic, the Georgia freshman, NC State junior Abigail Rencheli and Texas junior Malaika Rapolu.

The other four qualifiers are Ellen Perez(Georgia), Maria Kozyreva(St. Mary's), Katarina Kozarov(Furman) and Allura Zamarripa(Texas). Zamarripa, the 2022 NCAA Team Most Outstanding Player who turned pro after her freshman year, picked up two big wins in qualifying. The 20-year-old left-hander, who has no WTA ranking, defeated WTA No. 664 Ganna Poznikhirenko of Ukraine in the first round 7-6(4), 6-4, and today took out WTA No. 379 Elena-Teodora Cadar of Romania 6-1, 6-0.

The top seed this week in Tyler is WTA No. 29 Kaia Kanepi of Estonia, with Madison Brengle, who has won the last three $60Ks in the US this fall, seeded No. 2. 

Wild cards were given to Maria Mateas(Duke), Sofia Kenin, Hina Inoue and Alana Smith(NC State).

This is the last week for the USTA's Australian Open Wild Card Challenge for women, with these the current standing entering the final week:

1. Caty McNally (No. 108) -- 189

2. Madison Brengle (No. 51) -- 161

3. Alycia Parks (No. 120) -- 126

4. Claire Liu (No. 60) -- 111

5. Peyton Stearns (No. 235) -- 100


 

There are 115 points available this week in Tyler, and McNally, Parks and Liu are not in the draw, so much can still change. Brengle and Liu are unlikely to need the wild card given their rankings.  NCAA champion Peyton Stearns'(Texas) chance for the wild card ended today, when she lost to Emiliana Arango of Colombia 6-4, 6-2 in the first round. There is also a WTA 125 in Mexico this week that counts for the Wild Card Challenge, with Parks, Eli Mandlik, Emma Navarro(Virginia) and Ashlyn Krueger still in the running there.
