Next up on the New York University Top-50 list of varsity sports highlights from 2019-20 is the women's tennis team's win over Southern Virginia University on March 7.
The 8-1 victory represented the final match of the season for the Violets, whose season ended abruptly due to the coronavirus pandemic. It lifted NYU's record to a perfect 4-0 in dual matches and the team's final-season national ranking to a
best-ever #17 by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA).
The Violets jumped out early in their final competition, winning all three doubles matches and then taking five of six singles en route to the 8-1 victory.
The win was also special because it was registered on the team's annual Family/Senior Day, as graduating seniors
Anandini Chawla (New Delhi, India/Vasant Valley School),
Rupa Ganesh (San Jose, CA/Lynbrook),
Judy Kam (Beijing, China/University), and
Coco Kulle (Vienna, Austria/Choate Rosemary Hall (CT)) all saw action in their final collegiate competition.
