I can find steams but would like to see a scoreboard more. Anyone have a link to livescores?

UCLA already made quick work of Rice and it appears Cal is almost done with GaTech

[jaggy]

Thanks so much

I think the first 4 matches are all going to be sweeps. Interesting matches won't start until the 4 pm rounds get going.

Baylor and Northwestern might put up more of a fight than you think.

I hate those courts ... they are so close together ,always playing 'lets'... why don't college courts spread them wider and fence in every court..

Northwestern's doubles point has been pretty bad all year, and in singles they've been wildly inconsistent, way more than any previous year. Sometimes they can play like a Top 5-8 team, and then turn around and play like a 20-25 team.

I could do without the commercial everytime I switch between courts, ugh.

Looks like College Tennis Online has all the video and live scoring in one place.

They each did claim a point, so it was more than I expected. Good call.

UVA and Duke is going to be fascinating in a neutral environment.

[mikej]

They've played in a neutral environment, and at UVA
, so not sure what the neutral environment of Athens means for Duke's chances

But yes, I gulped a bit at this draw, always tough to beat a gritty talented team three times

If UVA wins the dubs pt we'll have a nail biter on our hands like at UVA...if not, not nearly as dicey I suspect like the Acc tourney

Well done by UVA - here we go

[ClarkC]

Too bad that the ACC qualifies five women's teams for the final 16, and four of them are paired against each other, with the fifth (Georgia Tech) being one of the lower seeds with a very tough draw. Great conference for women's tennis, but only two will be in the quarterfinals.

yep, strange and unfortunate that this draw ended up being PAC12 vs ACC/SEC halves...much worse than the men's draw

impressed with UVA so far...i think capra will turn it around despite the early going here, but who knows if even that will be enough...lots of UVA players brining it tonight it seems

we'll see who handles the big moments better at the end of what i foresee will be many, many close sets

[mikej]

after watching for a half hour:

MATCHES LOOKING FAIRLY GOOD FOR DUKE

capra rolling now after an ugly first few games - she should win

kahan looking really good up 5-2, hard-fought but i like the way she's playing and her body language - i'd bet she takes it

turewicz is a strange player - like reka from a year or two ago in a lot of ways, but hasn't elevated her craftiness to that same level of course - she won the first set but in a lot of ways that match is in the hands of her opponent - hopefully the UVA player continues to struggle / get frustrated with the stuff coming to her

------
NOT SURE YET

i love clayton's heart out there - fought off at least one set point with some ridiculous scrambling - i'm not sure there's a player out there that makes her opponent work more for points - so here's hoping that work pays off against a strong UVA player in the end - i think it will be tough for UVA to recover if clayton wins the first (5-5 now, was 5-3 UVA at the time of set point(s))

goldfeld and hardenbergh have been neck and neck all season, i wouldn't want to bet on this one

------

MATCHES LOOKING LESS GOOD FOR DUKE

Mar is a heck of a fighter also, and in some ways has the more all-around game of the two on that court, but Xi looks to be a bit too much for her to handle from the baseline

[mikej]

clayton and goldfeld win tough first sets

all 4 first sets completed so far go to duke

kahan let a set point get away at 5-2, so hopefully she closes this first set out despite that

mar fighting back, 4-5 now
