It has been pretty obvious for some time that Blake and Blokhina are no longer performing well as a doubles team . I really don’t understand why Yu has not been given chances at least in doubles. They can’t keep on losing doubles points against strong teams. That is their achilles heel which could cut short NCAA title aspirațions.
This match was a battle and good they squeezed it out . Convincing wins for Blake and Ma 6-0 6-2 and 6-4 6-0 at 1 and 2 . Solid From Hui 6-4.6-3 at 5 and fighting From Yep 6-2, 2-6, 6-1 .at 3. Xu unfinished at 6, up 3-1 in 3rd. Disappointing for Blokhina going down again to Cayetano 6-3 6-3 at 4.
So another conference final tomorrow against Cal rather than top seeda UCLA ! At least that will be on live stream ….
