CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The No. 8 NC State women's tennis team opened three days of action at the UNC Invitational with two rounds of doubles and nine singles matches against the Tar Heels on Friday.
The nation's No. 2 duo of Anna Rogers and Alana Smith picked up a pair of victories over ranked foes to go perfect in doubles action on the day. They defeated 15th-ranked Makenna Jones and Sara Daavettila 7-6 (5) and 45th-ranked Cameron Morra and Elizabeth Scotty 6-3.
Also in doubles, Liz Norman and Amelia Rajecki teamed up for a 6-0 blank of Anna Harmon and Sara McClure, and 16th-ranked Jaeda Daniel and Adriana Reami defeated Alexa Graham and Reilly Tran 6-3.
Daniel impressed in singles action by quickly defeating No. 53 Alle Sanford in straight sets (6-3, 6-3). The Wolfpack senior remains a perfect 9-0 against nationally-ranked singles players in her NC State career.
