SDSU Fall Classic II Updated Brackets in PDF Format
The San Diego State women's tennis team completed day one action at the SDSU Fall Classic II on Friday at Aztec Tennis Center. Competition began with one round of doubles and was followed by two rounds of singles on a warm November day in America's Finest City.
Third-seeded Holly Bagshaw was victorious in her first-round match in the A draw of singles by defeating Oklahoma's Kristina Radan, 6-1, 6-0. The senior, however, was not as fortunate in the second round as she was downed in a hard-fought three-set contest by Denise Dy of Washington, 3-6, 6-2, 6-2. In doubles, she and Olivia Colman moved on to the second round of the A Doubles draw thanks to a first-round bye. The duo will take on Dy and Venise Chan of Washington in the second round on Saturday beginning at 9 a.m. PT.
In Singles B action, Olivia Colman and Roxanne Ellison dropped their opening round matches, but rebounded by winning in the consolation bracket. Colman was a 6-3, 6-2 winner over Tara Eckel of Oklahoma and Ellison emerged with a 6-3, 6-1 decision over Alexandra Demidova of San Diego.
Sierra Ellison took on Ali Wahba of Colorado and was victorious, 6-3, 6-3, in the opening round. In the second round, she then emerged victorious with a 6-3, 6-2 decision over Ali Borowicz of UC Irvine to advance to the semifinals of the Singles C draw.
In the Doubles A bracket, the Ellison tandem of Roxanne and Sierra, recorded an 8-6 win over Marie Pier Huet and Maria Kalashnikova to advance to the semifinals.
