November 06, 2024 | Women's Tennis
NORMAN – The Oklahoma women's tennis team will have split-squad matches this weekend, with five players competing at the ITA Sectional Championships and four players heading south for the Rice Fall Invitational.
Both tournaments will take place Thursday, Nov. 7 through Sunday, Nov. 10.
ITA Sectional Championships
The 2024 ITA Sectional Championships, hosted by the University of Michigan, will feature a 32-player singles draw and a 16-team doubles draw. From these, six singles players from each section (24 total) will qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship (semifinalists and two quarterfinal playoff winners). Three doubles teams from each section (12 total) will qualify for the NCAA Doubles Championship (champion, finalist, and third-place team).
Only players and doubles teams who have yet to earn entry into the NCAA Championships and have made deep runs at the ITA All-American or ITA Regional Championships are eligible to participate.
The Central Sectional Championships include teams from the Midwest, Central, and Texas regions. Along with OU and host school Michigan, the field will include Texas A&M, TCU, Memphis, Baylor, Ohio State, Iowa, Texas Tech, Notre Dame, Arkansas, Tulsa, Iowa State, Illinois, Houston, Texas, Northwestern and Kansas State.
Five Sooners will get a shot to punch their ticket to Waco this weekend: Ava Catanzarite, Alina Shcherbinina, Emma Staker, Julia Garcia Ruiz and Chloé Noël will all compete at the Varsity Tennis Center.
A tentative day-by-day schedule, as well as draws, can be found here.
