Doubles is in progress:

1D: Embree/Oyen (UF) def. #10 Dai/Kay (UNC) 8-3
2D: Collins/Janowicz (UF) trail De Bruycker/Suarez-Malaguti (UNC) 4-6
3D: Cercone/Morgan (UF) tied with McHale/Lyons (UNC) 6-6

Looks like it may come down to Cercone/Morgan again. Odd that Collins/Janowicz were moved up to 2 after losing badly at 3 yesterday; perhaps we have resorted to stacking to try to beat UNC?

Drat! No question on whom the #1 team is now!

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 03:25 PM

Morgan/Cercone lose 7-9.

Point comes down to #2 where Collins/Janowicz have rallied to tie 7-7.

Long game, got the break. Serving for the point now.

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 03:40 PM

I wonder if Roland is rethinking his stance on no-ad doubles? Second day in a row that the doubles point has gone on forever.

barn burner of a match thus far
impressed w/ embree/oyen, they've knocked off some top doubles talent the last 2 days

swimfan99 · 02-18-2013, 03:52 PM

Lacking toughness early in the season to close things out. Tiebreaker now

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 03:57 PM

Glad UNC is posting the point-by-point tiebreak scores. 4-4 now.

swimfan99 · 02-18-2013, 04:00 PM

Had our chances again. Closing seems to be an issue right now.

GatorJeff · 02-18-2013, 04:02 PM

Heels win tiebreaker. Going to have to win four of six in singles.

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 04:04 PM

Yep, lost the tiebreak 7-5 with UNC taking the last 3 points.

Tough to close on the road, especially facing top 5 teams in the first road trip of the year.

gatorbogey · 02-18-2013, 04:13 PM

fought hard for that one point.

gatorbogey · 02-18-2013, 04:15 PM

is this match indoors or outdoors?

gatorbogey · 02-18-2013, 04:17 PM

what's the prognosis for the singles?...seems UNC has the advantage going by individual rankings
toss up at #1, UF ad at #2, UNC ad at #3 & 4, maybe another tossup at #5?, UNC at #6?

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 04:26 PM

Pretty evenly matched I think, but then with the homecourt advantage for UNC.

Wins at 1,2,4,6 is our most likely path to victory IMHO, but there isn't a single match that's a sure fire win for either team.

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 04:27 PM

And for the second day in a row we won the first game on all 6 singles courts. Feeling a bit like deja vu.

gatorbogey · 02-18-2013, 04:45 PM

Embree, Brianna, Jano off to good starts

G2MGA · 02-18-2013, 04:56 PM

Cercone rallies to win the 1st set at #3 6-4. A win there would be big for her and the team - her opponent was MVP of Team Indoors.

Gators have won 3 of 4 first sets completed thus far.

swimfan99 · 02-18-2013, 05:01 PM

Eerily similar to yesterday, losing tight doubles and then winning 4 first sets in singles.

Oyen can't seem to hold a lead. She was up 5-2 yesterday and lost 5-7. Up 3-0 today and lost 3-6
