Duke Blanks NC State to Head to NCAA Quarterfinals

DURHAM, N.C. – For the second-consecutive year, the Duke women’s tennis team is headed to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Team Championships after defeating No. 12 NC State, 4-0, Friday evening under the lights in Ambler Tennis Stadium.

“This win feels great,” head coach Jamie Ashworth said. “First of all, we had a great atmosphere and a great crowd supporting both Duke and NC State. NC State had an unbelievable year. I thought we were relentless from the start. We used the momentum from the doubles and rode with it to play really well, really smart and really disciplined tennis.
