TCU had match points to win, but their rebuilding season ends with a 3-4 loss

4. #89 Oliver Ojakaar (TEX) def. Oliver Bonding (TCU) 6-1, 6-3

Wake Forest couldn't defend the title and normally reliable Luca succumbed to a 2nd successive defeat.

3. #114 Jangjun Kim (VA) def. #28 Luca Pow (WF) 7-5, 5-7, 6-2

Charlie was absent from the line-up and that those below him in the line-up had to play up may have contributed to the defeat.

I see auburn came through the womens semi - so no British players make the finals this season, sadly.

In the women's semi-finals Ohio State were no match for Auburn. Auburn dominated doubles and Flora and Hep both lost their respective doubles sets easily. Neither played singles. And that ends British player participation for this season. Auburn do however have Brit Pete Francis on their coaching staff.

In the other semi, Texas A&M came back to give Georgia and their massive home support their first home defeat of the season.

Aside from Auburn, all the other finalists came back from 1-3 down.

When Ruby starts at Texas A&M in August she'll be joining the NCAA National Champions.

Virginia won the men's title.

It was interesting to finally see how college Tennis actually works. The doubles is a bit odd (3 matches but only 1 point at stake) but I suppose the one set format means everyone is fresh enough to play singles immediately afterwards. It must be distracting though having the crowd react to the adjoining matches, plus you can't be sure if you'll even get to finish your match depending on results elsewhere.
