"We played some great tennis today," head coach Mark Beyers said. "We're excited to have Alexa and Isolde in the doubles final, and Tea in the singles final. I'm very proud of this entire team with the way we played, as well as the way we competed out there. We talked about two things out there, 'process and progress'. I absolutely feel these girls are trusting the process and are making tremendous progress out there. It's exciting to see."
Bortles/de Jong proved victorious after a quick 6-2 first set and battling through triumphantly 7-6(5) in the second, defeating league-foe Daniell/Ito of Alabama. Bortles and de Jong rank 31stin the country in the latest ITA Rankings release.
