After a 2 and half hour rain delay the remaining 2 courts between the Pepperdine and San Diego women went down to the wire but Pepperdine secured the Championship title. Hannah Read was named to the All-Tournament team in singles. The loss leaves San Diego ranked 41, 1 place outside of a NCAA at large bid and without the other factors that are part of the NCAA calculation overturning their placing according to collegetennisranks. They could fall another place with the cut moved up 1 with results elsewhere today. If this is where their season ends, they are a better side than 41, but hampered by having only 4 players in the fall due to players not turning up or leaving from home sickness and having to recruit last minute replacements. During the spring season having multiple injuries, including Hannah twisting her ankle skipping between change of ends, and having to play without 6 players mid season and cancelling other matches due to insufficient fit players. That said, it was in their hands and the 'hangover' defeat to Washington State last week has caused them to miss the cut.

San Diego men retained the men's Championship with a 4-2 win. Ollie winning his singles. They will be ranked 7 but seeded 6 according to collegetennisranks moving ahead of 4th ranked Virginia who they have as seeded 7th from the other factors that are taken into account.

UCLA play Ohio State in the men's Big Ten final. Giacomo Revelli (UCLA) getting another win at No 6 in the SF.

Of note away from British players but with British interest to some, in the women's Big Ten Championship final Ohio State upset 3rd ranked Michigan in a 4 -3, I assume thriller. Westside LTC and Surrey player Nao Nishino getting the final point at No 4 that gave the Buckeyes the title. She defeated Emily Sartz-Lunde 6-7(5) 7-6(7) 6-4. Nao saving match point in the 2nd set tie break. From what I read, with most games going to no ad deuce in the final set, it may have gone to a 3rd set tie break if it was not for at 3-3 deciding point Michigan receiving their 3rd overule, giving them a game penalty putting Nao 5-3 up. The win jumps OSU from being ranked 9 to a top 4 team, which I think is fair to say nobody outside of Ohio State saw coming.
