CARY, N.C. – Three Ole Miss women’s tennis players head to Cary, North Carolina, for the ITA All-American Championships.
Ludmila Kareisová is set to compete in qualifying singles, needing three wins to advance to the main draw. She is the first Rebel to play singles at All-Americans since Sabina Machalova in 2021. Ava Hrastar and Briana Crowley prepare for the double qualifying bracket and need three wins to advance to the main draw. The pairing is the first Rebels doubles team to participate in doubles at All-Americans since Machalova and 2018 All-American Alexa Bortles did so in 2019.
All three Rebels will start competing in the qualifying bracket on October 2.
Hosted at the Casey Tennis Park, the event will feature a singles and doubles tournament from September 30 to October 8. The tournament consists of both singles and doubles brackets.
Doubles will be one set to eight, while singles will be two out of three complete sets (just like a dual match).
