The match is tight. We lost the doubles point. Might
come down to the #5 singles.

It's 3-2 now. We need one of the remaining two courts. Still think it could come down to court #5. That one is in the 3rd set.

Broadfoot is in trouble on court #3. It's 5-5 in the 2nd and she lost the first set. Edit: She just pulled out the 2nd set.

We won!!

What a win! We have no business being this good in women's tennis. The coach is amazing. Incredible hire by Debbie Yow. Very few programs at NC State ever have achieved results like this.

Yes, big comeback and took control on court 3.

Now we earn the right to play #1 Georgia on their home courts.

Texas beat Georgia 4-1 this year. And UNC beat Georgia 5-2. So by the transitive property, we can definitely beat Georgia.

Of course I know you can't predict it that way. But we got a damn good shot. Being in their home court in front of a hostile crowd will make it tougher for sure.

It truly is incredible how good we have been at tennis over the last ~6 years (regularly ranked in the top 10 in the nation, 4 Elite Eights, 2 Final Fours, 2 ACC Titles, 1 National Runner-Up), when the program were cellar dwellers in the ACC from the beginning of the program in the late 1970s all the way until 2014 when current head coach Simon Earnshaw was hired. Obviously goes to show that with the right coach, ANY program in almost any sport can become elite.

For those who didn't see the match, our #5 singles player, freshman Tori Osuigwe, had 7 match points she lost before she finally clinched here. It was crazy drama out there.

Looking ahead to the Georgia match….Georgia lost 5 matches this year (21-5 record), but all of those 5 losses were away from home. They were 10-0 at home, including a 4-0 win over Auburn, the #2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Goes to show how big of an advantage you get from a home crowd. I think it sucks to hold the NCAA championship final site on the home courts of one of the top seeds like this, giving them this big advantage.

But like I said in my quoted post, Georgia has lost to Texas and UNC (on the road), who we beat. So we have a shot.

Might be in minority but NC State has good chance of upsetting Georgia. We are the #8 team in country not some at large who barely made NCAA tournament.

I agree with you. If we were playing at a neutral site, I would actually favor us to beat Georgia. But with us having to play on their home courts, and probably facing a hostile, raucous crowd of 500-1000 Georgia fans, I would probably say we have about a 30-40% chance of winning. Hope I'm wrong.
