WEST POINT, N.Y. - Highlighted by the reigning Patriot League Doubles Team of the Year's return to the quarterfinals, the Boston University women's tennis team competed over the weekend at the ITA Regional Championships hosted by Army West Point.
The Terriers were just one of four programs to have two doubles teams participating reach the Round of 16. Both junior Emily Kim and sophomore Shelly Yaloz combined for three wins for the second consecutive year, while junior Alex Angyalosy and freshman Erica Di Battista recorded a pair of victories. Kim and Yaloz also both won a singles match to lead the Terriers.
After opening with an 8-5 victory over UConn, Yaloz and Kim dispatched Columbia, 8-3 and then Brown, 8-5, to reach the quarterfinals. They battled to the end but ultimately came up short to Penn's No. 59 nationally-ranked duo of Iuliia Bryzalova and Marija Curnic, 8-3.
Earlier in the event, Yaloz had claimed a 7-6(4), 6-0 victory over Curnic for her first-ever singles win at the ITAs. In the Round of 64, Yaloz was eliminated by Buffalo's No. 17-32 seeded Pia Schwarz, 6-1, 6-2. Kim eliminated Army's Elizabeth Gilbert, 6-4, 6-3, but was then blanked by Princeton's No. 5-8 seeded Daria Frayman.
Angyalosy and Di Battista were close to reaching the quarterfinals in doubles as well, posting impressive wins against Rhode Island (8-2) and Boston College (8-3). In the Round of 16, they were edged by Harvard's No. 5-8 seeded Rachel Lim and Natasha Gonzalez, 8-6.
The Terriers will next wrap up the fall schedule at the Harvard Invitational on Nov. 1-3.
