ITA Regionals on Deck for Ducks

EUGENE, Ore. – The ITA Northwest Regionals are up next for the Oregon women's tennis team, with the annual event kicking off Friday at both the Hellman Tennis Complex in Berkley, Calif., and the Timothy Korth Tennis Complex is Moraga, Calif.

All nine Ducks will compete in the regional, with the singles finalists and doubles champions advancing to the NCAA Fall Championships. Friday will feature the round of 64 in the doubles main draw as well as the first two rounds of the singles qualifying draw.

Patsy Daughters, Tilde Jagare and Olivia Symons will compete in the singles main draw that begins Saturday, while the remaining six athletes will compete in the singles qualifying draw beginning Friday.

Four UO doubles pairs will compete in the main draw: Hinata Furutani/Olivia Symons, Hadley Appling/Avery Jennings, Patsy Daughters/Bridget Mihulka and Tilde Jagare/Juliet Santitto.

The tournament marks the Ducks' second of the fall season, after UO began its fall campaign last week at Duck Invitational. Appling, who went unbeaten across six total matches over the weekend, took home Big Ten Freshman of the Week honors on Wednesday.

Jagare joined Appling with a perfect 3-0 singles mark at the Ducks' home tournament, with Furutani, Mihulka and Santitto each earned two singles wins. In doubles, Appling and Jennings won their only match when paired together last weekend.

The tournament bracket, updated results and draws can be found on the ITA's tournament page. A live stream will be available for matches played at the Hellman Tennis Complex via CalBears.com.
