UF women's tennis team holds No. 2 rankings

The Florida women’s tennis team remained at the No. 2 position in this week’s Campbell/ITA NCAA Division I Rankings, while six Gators appeared in the singles rankings and six different doubles teams earned a spot on the national chart.
Florida (25-1) has been either the No. 1 or No. 2-ranked team all 15 weeks this season, alternating with current-No. 1 Stanford.
Individually, all six members of the team in the current singles lineup earned a spot in this week’s national chart, with Allie Will at No. 8, Lauren Embree at No. 16, Joanna Mather at No. 38, Olivia Janowicz at No. 52, Alex Cercone at No. 53 and Sofie Oyen at No. 88.
In doubles the Gator pair of Cercone and Will jumped to a career-high No. 3, while the team of Oyen and Will is No. 8, Caroline Hitimana and Mather is No. 38, Embree and Oyen is No. 48, Embree and Mather is No. 64 and Cercone and Janowicz is No. 84.
Florida has concluded its regular season and next awaits word on its NCAA First Round opponent. The NCAA 64-team field will be announced on Tuesday at 5 p.m. and will be webcast on NCAA.com. The Gators won the Southeastern Conference Tournament and secured the league’s automatic berth. First-round matches are scheduled to be played on 16 different campus sites (also announced during the selection show) on either May 13 or May 14, with the second round played the following day.
The rankings will be updated again Monday and then not again until the final release on May 30 following the NCAA Team, Singles and Doubles Championships.
