ANN ARBOR, MICH. -- Georgia senior Agata Cioroch will play for her second career collegiate grand slam singles title Sunday at the ITA National Indoor Championships.

Cioroch, the nation's top-ranked player and defending tournament champion, battled back to win in a third set tiebreaker over fourth-ranked Cristelle Grier (Northwestern) 6-3,5-7,7-6(4) to advance to the final. She will face Oklahoma's Anda Perianu who will be making her first appearance in a grand slam final. The two have met once before with Cioroch posting a straight-set win in the first round of the 2003 NCAA Championships.

Cioroch will try to join Stanford's Laura Granville (2000-01) as the only other repeat champion in tournament history. The final will begin at noon and can be listened to live via the Internet at RadioTennis.com
