After a rain-enforced break, Cal women’s tennis is set to come back to the court this weekend, facing two more Pac-12 opponents in USC and UCLA. Cal’s season has been riddled with rain delays and rescheduling, making it hard to get on-court time to prepare for tough matches.
The Bears looked confident out on the courts on Friday against SDSU. Now, Cal steadies itself for No. 3 Michigan, hoping to use the newly found momentum to secure a crucial win.
Following a weekend of rainouts, Cal returned to the court in Miami, facing off against highly ranked Miami and NC State. Despite valiant efforts, both matches ended in losses for the Bears, dropping their record to 2-3.
Cal women’s tennis will face off against no. 16 Miami and no. 10 NC State from Feb 11-12. Hoping to redeem themselves after their loss against USD in late January, Cal seeks singles and doubles success this weekend.
As Shelton was battling it out in Melbourne, college teams across the country, including No. 11 Cal, participated in the ITA Kickoff Weekend, vying for a spot at the Indoor Nationals in Seattle. While the Bears beat Princeton 4-1 on Friday, San Diego got the better of Cal on Saturday, also with a 4-1 win.
