| No. 9-16 Lindsey Nelson, Southern California
"I was really happy with the way I played this morning. I got in a high percentage of first serves, and that's always a key to my game. The score was not a good indicator of how difficult the match was. She's a tough competitor. I'm just glad to win, advance and get some rest before my next match." No. 1 Megan Bradley, Miami
"This was just a tough day. I just couldn't make any shots. I don't know how else to explain it. Yesterday I felt good, but today I just didn't have it." Marianna Yuferova, Va. Commonwealth (Upset No. 1 Bradley)
"I think this might be the best match I've ever played. I can't explain it, but it seems like the worse I feel, the better I play. Yesterday I felt myself getting sick. After the second set, I started thinking I could beat her, so in the final set I just concentrated on keeping the ball in and letting her make mistakes." No. 8 Suzi Babos, California-Berkeley
"I played awful and she played better. Basically, I beat myself. The wind is not my favorite condition to play in. I couldn't do the things I wanted to do because the ball was basically floating around. The wind was definitely with her." Theresa Logar, Stanford (Upset No. 8 Babos)
"My goal this year was to make All-American, and I knew it would be tough when I saw Suzi Babos in my draw in the second round. Today, I think I was able to play the right kind of style to give her problems. I was able to take a lot off the ball and force her into mistakes and to just play scrappy tennis." No. 3 Audra Cohen, Northwestern
"It was really, really windy, and on a day like this, if you compete well you can get into a rhythm. Today was all about how well you competed, and I competed pretty well. Winning the way I did makes me know I can compete well the rest of this tournament. If I lose, I'll go out competing." No. 4 Aibika Kalsarieva, Kentucky
"(Ashley Bentley, Alabama) is a streaky player, so I just tried to make her miss. She hits it hard, but I was trying to make contact and I didn't try to go for too much. I just try to stay consistent." No. 2 Julie Coin, Clemson
"(Dianne Hollands, Arizona) made a lot of mistakes. I don't think she was at her best, and that helped. I also didn't give too many shots away, so that helped too. I served pretty good, I returned well and I really stepped it up on her second serves." No. 5 Jennifer Magley, Florida
"(San Diego's Emma Murphy's) strokes were very high and bounced in such a way that it made it difficult to come into the net. Even if I came into the net, it was so windy that that strategy really wasn't the right one. Today was just about who wanted it the most and who made the least amount of mistakes. It always feels good to advance no matter how you win. I suppose I'm proud of myself becauses I'm learning how to win different ways." No. 9-16 Story Tweedie-Yates, TCU
"I came out of the gates and played really well in the first set and kept it going through the first part of the second set. Then just when I thought I had it in the bag, (Maja Kovacek, New Mexixo) picked up the pace and got into the match. Fortunately, I was able to grind out the win. The wind today is probably the worst I've ever played in. It's so unpredictable that you can't even adjust to it." No. 9-16 Kristi Miller, Georgia Tech
"(Margarita Karnaukhova, Sacramento St.) gave me a couple of quick errors and I was, like, `OK, let's see how long this lasts. Let's see how long I can beat her with just consistency.' It ended up being the whole match." No. 9-16 Zerene Reyes, Florida
"It was a pretty good win for me today. I was feeling relaxed and (Stanford's Alice Barnes) was making mistakes. The first set was tight but after the first set it felt like it was all me. I'm just happy to advance. I'm not really too tired, but I'll drink a lot of Gatorade to get ready for tomorrow." < return="" to="" tournament="" home=""> |
