Seventh-ranked NC State women's tennis (17-2, 8-1 ACC) added another conference win under its belt with a 7-0 sweep over No. 45 Boston College (10-9, 3-8 ACC).

The Wolfpack went perfect for the day as they tabbed all possible wins in doubles and singles. Doubles lineups showed some pairings from earlier in the season that proved they were still able to clinch the point.

Alana Smith and Anna Zyryanova, graduate student and freshman pair on court three set the tone for the day as they finished 6-1 over Boston College's Sophie Edwards and Stephanie Sanchez. Although they dropped the first game on court two, Sophie Abrams and Abigail Rencheli turned the tides to come back and dominate their opponents Seren Agar and Hailey Wilcox 6-2 to clinch the doubles point for the Wolfpack.

Play on court one with No. 19 Nell Miller and Amelia Rajecki was neck and neck throughout the match but was halted at a 4-4 score once the doubles point was secured.

No. 114 Abrams breezed through to take the first singles win (6-0, 6-1) for the Wolfpack on court four with a near shutout over Muskan Mahajan. Leading 2-0, #24 Rajecki extended the lead to three with a 6-3, 6-2 victory on court two over Laura Lopez.

Freshman, Zyryanova stepped up to the plate yet again to take down her adversary in just two sets. She posted a 6-4, 6-3 win over Natalie Eordekian on court six to make the win for NC State official.

While No. 9 Smith jumped head on court one, Boston College's No. 71 Marice Aguiar put up a fight in both sets to minimize her trail. Ultimately the red-and-white's lead was advanced to 5-0 when Smith finished 6-4, 6-4.
Gina Dittmann posted a shutout in her first set over Seren Agar but allowed her to come back and take the second set, forcing a third. She was able to shut down the Eagle's player in the final set to claim her victory 6-0, 4-6, 6-2.

To cap off the day, No. 58 Rencheli yet again displayed her grit on court three to submit the shutout for her team. Finishing in only two sets over Sophia Edwards she sent the Eagles home without any wins for the day when she picked up her triumph after fighting through a second set tiebreaker (6-4, 7-6 (8-6).

This rivalry weekend, it's all hands on deck for No. 7 NC State women's tennis. With the Wolfpack set to square off against its fiercest rivals, No. 1 UNC-Chapel Hill and No. 6 Duke, there are major postseason implications and bragging rights on the line.

However, this rivalry is a bit different from other NC State sports teams with their Triangle rivals. The Pack has had success across the board in its past several seasons under head coach Simon Earnshaw, all except for beating its rivals, especially UNC.

In fact, NC State has only beaten the perennially excellent Tar Heels once in program history, nearly a quarter of a century ago in 1999.

While UNC is a behemoth all on its own, the Pack's match against the Tar Heels is only the start of its toughest stretch of matches in 2023. The No. 6 Blue Devils, No. 11 Texas and No. 9 Virginia are all on the horizon for the Wolfpack, making the team's final matches of the season the most important ones yet. While the Pack has shown it can beat those teams in the past, it's still chasing the white whale that is UNC.

Missing our #1 today because she's playing in the Charleston WTA tournament?

If I was coach, I would put our #6 singles player at the #1 spot and take the L at #1, and give the rest of our singles players a decent shot at winning, and then if we can win the doubles point (which is crucial), hopefully that gives us a halfway decent shot at pulling off the upset. But it's going to be pretty difficult to beat unc without Shnaider.
