INDIANAPOLIS (Ind.) - UC Santa Barabra senior Amelia Honer has earned a ticket to the NCAA Division I Women’s Tennis Singles Championship. The announcement was made on Tuesday on NCAA.com.
The singles and doubles competition will be conducted May 20-25 at the Greenwood Tennis Center in Stillwater, Oklahoma, after the conclusion of the team championship, which runs from May 16-19. Oklahoma State University serves as host.
Automatic qualification into the Division I singles championship is awarded to any conference with one or more eligible singles players ranked in the ITA Top 125 for eligible/entered singles players. For conferences with more than one singles player within the ITA Top 125 eligible/entered singles players, the subcommittee applies the NCAA selection criteria to determine which student-athlete is the automatic qualifier from those conferences. All singles players must have a minimum of 13 started singles matches, with six matches in the spring, in order to be selected as an automatic qualifier or an at-large selection.
Honer is 20-2 in singles competition this season and is currently ranked No. 48 in the latest Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) rankings released on April 25.
