Women: #7 Texas @ #17 USC
Given the events in LA, not sure this will go ahead or be moved. Grace and Imogen should be in USC's regular singles 6, I would think Grace at 2 and Imogen at 3, 4 or 5.

#17 USC defeated #7 Texas 4-3
USC won the doubles point but Grace and Lily lost their doubles match. Immi didn't play doubles after her partnership with Emma Charney seems to have been broken up for now. In singles, Immi played at No 4. and won 7-6(4) 7-5 against the #28 ranked Texas freshman. She was up a double break in the first set, but gave them back and had to serve to force a tie-break. Immi clinched the match for USC to put USC up 4-1 with her win. If you think these matches don't mean anything than you just look at how Immi and the team celebrated her win, nearly knocking her off her feet. Grace leapfrogged Emma Charney into the No 1 spot, which given their form over the fall season makes sense. Unfortunately it was a bad day for Grace as despite taking the first set she lost in 3.

No 1: Sabina Zeynaloba / Ashton Bowers (Texas) def. No. 7 Grace Piper/Lily Fairclough (USC) 6-3

No 1: Sabina Zeynaloba (Texas) def. #37 Grace Piper (USC) 3-6, 6-4, 6-2
No 4: #57 Immi Haddad (USC) def. #28 Carmen Andreea Herea (Texas) 7-6 (4), 7-5
